I really didn't think it went that far up into the state. Thanks.

Yep. You are right.

The confusion is partly my fault. When I think "Hill Country" I think Austin because I've spent more time closer to Austin than I have San Antonio. I should have just said Hill Country instead of Austin area. I also used the city because I thought it would be more recognizable since its the capitol and more people not familiar with Texas would be able to figure out where that is.

Hill Country is beautiful. Texas really isn't that bad.

When most people think of Texas they think of the Hollywood view which resembles something more like the Panhandle. Even the Northeast part of the state is rolling hills

I love it in Texas, every time I went I wanted to stay. :)

I probably only find it funny because I don't live in Texas... but... Sam's original post is one of the funniest I've read in days :)

Born and raised in Beaumont. Dear gawwwwd. :turd: :dead3:

We moved away when I was 10 and I never went back until 2007, when I was offered an awesome job in Dallas that would have set me up quite nicely, financially.

Sorry. We're talking about Dallas. Texas. No can do. :headshake I'd much rather be broke.

Thank you, SG! ;)

But no one has yet to answer my question about bar glasses. Do Texans really drink out of bar glasses with ads on them?

I think my friend is being conned on this. I can't figure out how bar glasses could be such money makers. Can anyone explain this? Flint? Morethanpretty? Someone?

If I had to guess, it's a commission sales position. The mfg takes very little risk.

I imagine that the sales position is a scam, and she knows it, but that it's really just an excuse for her to go hook up with her old boyfriend, so she doesn't care.

What does she do now?

Texas has Austin right? Home of gaming expos. I'd like to visit Austin.

You can crash on our couch anytime, Dana. :)

You would LOVE Austin. In fact you might never go home if you visited. It is also known for one of the best music scenes in the Midwest.
