Now they just give you an obscene gesture or shoot at you. Even though my TX roots go back to the 1830's, I feel like a fish out of water. I wish I could afford to move to NM or CO.

Wowza! Some say "da Bronx", Detroit, parts of L.A., and various other American cities are bad, but I think your Texas story takes the cake. Thanks for the morning chuckle.
