Texas?
Posted by Razorclaw on Monday, December 13, 2004 9:25 PM
How many Texans do we have on this here website. Stephen P. s. Doesn't matter if you're native born or not, so long as you're here[:)]

Just think it could be worse.

Hang in there Razorclaw. There are quite a few Texans on this forum. Nope, I am from the other great state....Alabama. Daughter and family are in Houston. Does that count?

LIved here in Lubbock for the past 10 years. I'm fond of saying "Not a native, but got here as quick as I could."

Of course, growing up in New Jersey and Philadelphia I have been called a Yankee. My response? Nope, I plan on staying here. That makes me a "D_ _ n Yankee" lol

In Austin for 32+ years, Corpus Christi for 4 before that and married a gal from Corpus. Plan to retire in Fredericksburg within the next few years. Guess that makes me almost a native.

Like Dkelly, I was born in Philly but got here as fast as I could. Have lived in TEXAS longer then most Texans as i'm 64 and heve been here since 1956. I've meet several of the forum members and would like to meet some of the others that live close to Beaumont - Houston area.

If you ever get a chance to see mcouvillion's club layout in Humble - jump on it. The track work is suburb.

Have a blessed day and remember SANTA FE ALL THE WAY
