Stupid Texas

[Urbane Guerrilla]

Dropped in on TX a couple of times myself. Scattershot impressions: They are good at barbeque there. The West TX accent around San Angelo isn't a social asset unless softpedaled by getting around enough to get cosmopolitan. Texas Creative Anachronists are about like Creative Anachronists anywhere, which most of the time means good folk. June bugs can fly, but can't steer -- this can either annoy you, or entertain you. I'd eat at The Big Texan (Amarillo) again; wonder where they get those violent jalapeños that kick harder than serranos. College Station seems more cosmopolitan than San Angelo. And I think I'd like the Big Bend country and the environs of Terlingua, where they do stunt-chili of immense elaboration and subtlety.
