What’s So Great About Texas?

I never said it. Not once…
Born and raised in Dallas, I spent 20 years in the Lone Star State before joining the military. Not ever did I say the phrase “Yeehaw”. I did, however, say the phrase “Damn, it’s hot today…” on numerous occasions. In fact, I don’t even have a Texas accent.
Not surprising since 88% of Texans live in a metropolitan area. Don’t get me wrong; if you drive in any direction away from Dallas for 20 minutes, things start to sound a little… twang-y.
