Texans have a certain pride that you don't find anywhere else. We make sure that everyone knows exactly who they're dealing with. Just to prove it, go out and pick off a random Japanese kid and draw him a picture of Texas. I bet you 20 armadillos that he'll know what it is. To take it a step further, we're the only state that devotes two years of history class to Texas history. You'll spend all of fourth and seventh grade learning about Texas and you'll finally understand why Sixflags is called what it is.
As a red blooded Texan, living here is a roller coaster ride, but one thing is always certain, the people never forget the southern hospitality, unless you're driving. The driving here is a nightmare, and it's because it's our only form of transportation. There are no taxis, because that's just weird. There is a metro system, but no one uses it, unless you're in the middle of downtown Houston, and walking is not possible unless a) you want to burn or b) you want your legs to fall off, because the nearest thing to your house is about 3 miles away. Remember, besides our friendly, isolated state, Alaska, Texas is the biggest state. When we build, we build out, not up. That's why you can drive for an hour and still be in Houston.
The best thing about living in Texas is the Rodeo. Every February thousands of people come to Houston to buy and sell their farm animals, play carnival games, get a heart attacks from eating fried butter balls, and at the end of the day, enjoy live music from some famous singer who had the gonads to perform.

Even though we have cars bigger than some people's homes, we love ourselves and celebrate by shooting our guns and yelling "Yeehaw!" Texas is great. We're home of Dr. Pepper, The Blue Bell factory, and chicken fried steak. We have oceans, deserts and everything in between. Along with all of this, we look damn good in cowboy hats.
