Did you know that the toothbrush was invented in Texas? If it had been invented anywhere else, they would have called it a teethbrush.

Actually invented in Upshur County, Texas Darryl. Where men are men and the animals run scared. It's where a guy goes to a family reunion to meet women. Where they ask, "If a couple is married and then get a divorce, are they still cousins?"

Speaking of Texas -

I read somewhere that Kinky Friedman is running for Governor - you are voting for him, ain'tcha West?

Don't know which of his songs are my favorite. Probably his take-off on Okie from Muskogee (A**hole from El Paso).

He was a hot item in NYC back in the early to mid 70's. Whenever he played the Lone Star Cafe with the Texas Jewboys, it would sell out.

The singer in my band at the time looked exactly like him.

Poor guy...looking like old Kinky. Actually, there are some things that the Kinkster says that make sense. I was thinking Kinky for Gov and Willie Nelson for Lieutentant Gov.

Willie said "Good thing I got busted for a couple of pounds of pot and not spinach, if it was spinach, I'd be dead by now."

Well, I just arrived in Dallas last night for a week of training.
Anybody got any dead cousins here I can pose as and cast a write-in for Willie?
