   I have some pretty big shoes to fill, my Beloved @Sanguine, but with your help, Briefers we can make Texas the best dam Category on this Forum as it is already the best State.

@corbe did not imagine you as a Texan.
Thought you were more of a Colorado/California type guy.
Anyway, congratulations on your move up.

From what I can discern, there seems to be hundreds of Texans on the board.

Good for you, corbe.  I did not vote because the vote was not "fair".  You are worse than any choice there.   :kisses2:  If you need any help with Texas, let me know.  I know it from the year 1933 until today.

What I like about @corbe is a Moderator who has lived in other than Texas.

So knows from experience how good this state truly is.

Your hearing must be really good @240B .  I have to read this board in order to appreciate Texas and no matter hard I have tried, I just can't catch the tune of "The Eyes of Texas".

She hinted once of running for political office, so my hope she will pop out as someone I can vote for and financially support.

Few people meet the criterion I have for doing that.
