For my Texas friends out there, a little something to inflate your ego

[Laura C]

FYI - it's Ann Richards. I worked for her public service office before she ran for governor. She was one of the funniest women I've ever met.

Ann it is, my mistake. Molly Ivins was quite funny also when her friend Ann was in office but quickly lost her sense of humor when George was elected. I still catch her column in the Red Star (Mpls. Star/Trib) occasionally and on the web but it is usually a rant against the Bushes and/or Republicans in general.

Yea, I've changed parties from my younger days and don't take too kindly to all the negative liberal b.s. from Molly, but I still respect her for all she's been through though. And I may switch back and vote for Kinky Friedman for governor this time around!

Now if they had any skiing in Texas then we could talk...but everytime I'm up in the mountains out here you should see all the Texans trying to get down the mountain, usually wearing a Longhorns Parka...funniest thing "y'all ever see" I do like the proximity to Mexico though and the gas thing though!

Kinky and the Texas Jewboys. He is a very interesting character. I watched him on Imus in the morning about a month ago. Good solid Texan. Profane, funny, independent. Sort of a peoples candidate like Jesse, only with a brain. Jesse the brain won only because the dems and repubs fielded such losers for candidates. When it takes a politician 10 minutes to answer a yes or no question, its time to pick door number 3.

No joke! You know, he writes the "back page" (which is really a number of pages) in Texas Monthly Magazine. It's the only thing I read in the entire magazine. It's a shame, but I can't imagine he'll get voted in.

God Bless Texas !!!!!

Hey, Why do you have those? Do you love to burn your coworkers so much? I thought that driving in Mexico city was dangerous, but if you got the top trauma units it should be because you driver worst than us, hehe.

I think Houston and the DF would be an interesting matchup on bad driving, but the taxi driver in the DF would put them over the top for the gold medal
if you have cancer, you would want to be at MD Anderson, if your severely burned, you want to be at Brook Army Medical Center in San Antonio, as close to God as it gets when prodcuing miracles

Well taxi drivers in DF are tame...



... in comparison with those crazy devils driving the Colectivo Microbuses.
A large, I don't have the number, of the accidents in DF are caused by those bastards.

Of course having all those nice hospitals is a great bennefit, but I will prefer not to have to use them.

Govenor Ann Richards may not be a beauty queen but she could sure take those hob-nailed boots and put them where the sun don't shine...

.

made the mistake of getting on a tour bus to Tulum in '95..... probably the scariest thing I've ever done in my life, talk about a feeling of no control over your destiny !!! Lil G woke up somewhere near P.Aventuras and I just told her "Don't look out the window, just go back to sleep and everything will be fine". Rented a VW bug the next day and started our own private tour company
