It is a great day to be Texan! Beautiful and Sunny, in my opinion the best state out there! I always thought Texans were bombastic people. They have a reason to be! If you have ever talked to people in central Texas and learned about what Texas stands for. You would love it too. They go out of their way to be nice. I was sitting in Steak n' Shake(we will talk about there later) and this man with a mental problem was sitting there talking to him self. He ordered and it was known he couldn't pay. We told the waiter we would pay but he said almost every table had asked to pay for that man's meal. On that note, without further delay
