When I first was in Texas I didn't have access to good jars, and had to send one back at a later date with return postage. To my surprise, the good folks at the City Hall did fill my jar and return it to me.
I've always considered myself lucky that they didn't also send hospital commitment orders too... 
On to my next cup of Royal Breakfast tea!

Honey, I was raised 58 miles north of Amarillo. They're USED to crazy people. You have to be crazy to live there and enjoy it. Besides, Amarillo is home to one of the U.S's most eccentric millionaires, Stanley Marsh III. This is the guy who is responsible for the Cadillac Ranch. Plus a whole bunch of weird street signs:

They probably thought you were refreshingly NORMAL.
