I have always been kinda a Texas Secesh. But, now I think all of these mega cities need to secede and set up their own little kingdoms, no longer a part of Texas. They can grow their own food, drink their own water, construct their own homes, and on and on. I mean after all, those of us that are considered more rural, who are Soldiers, Truck drivers, Oil field workers, Farmers, Christians of whatever stripe, are just unwashed Hicks and Racists. Especially considered so, if you can claim that you hail from several generations of Texans. Aw well, I do embrace my roots, I am a Redneck, my Daddy was a Redneck, my Grandfather was a Redneck, my Great-grandfather was a Redneck, this meaning that we bent our heads under a hot sun, working a Farm. We were called Square Heads prior to Redneck becoming in Vogue, meaning that we often had our head buried in a flank of a Milk Cow, twice a day. These others coming in, look upon this with embarrassment and nowadays even with anger. Just look what is said about the word Redneck? Automatically a Racist if you are considered to be one. I say, So be it...I know I drifted pretty far from topic. I apologize, I just started typing and couldn't quit.
