Did I miss the name calling? phew... good.
Congrats on losing 11 pounds Randi, that's really great.
I'm sorry about your dog and I lost my best friend (non-canine) 19 years ago and still think of her daily, talk about her and still cry sometimes.
Jeff Foxworthy cracks me up. It's so great because everyone fits into some aspect of his redneck definition. This one caught me early on:
You might be a redneck if... you've ever used pliers to change the TV station.
*nods* sure have done that.

heh, humor is humor, take it anyway you can. Laughing always wins I think.
Although, now I really wish I had a better image of Meg, hahahahaha.
Oh and thread hijacking is a complement of the highest order, in case you were concerned. (Ok, I just made that up.)

you already sent me doggie biscuits-remember?
besides...I've got so many ants around here I just leave out a bowl of chocolate syrup and eat them! Saves on the food budget-and i don't have to go shopping.
Hey- I just thought of something-I could send YOU a treat.

i think their expressions are different too.
give me a good ole' southern accent any day, or texas twang.
some people swear texans don't have accents, but i think we do....
when i go to wyoming,they always ask where i'm from...i don't think i sound strange......
as for bugs, you ain't seen nothing, till you've seen those enormous, what some call water bugs, in Houston....ugh..... i still call them cockroaches...we have some huge bugs and critters here.......

Yes, Texans have drawls. Mine is not strong at all, or so I hear! Those in West and East Tx have the strongest drawls in my opinion.
Dallas has a very strong drawl when compared to Houston. Randi, maybe you're exempt since you're in FTW!
or maybe all of those huge cockroaches in Houston take away our drawl!
That's something I dont' have to deal with here. Very few critters. I think I've seen one roach [small] in the 11 yrs we've been here. I could count the number of mosquitoes I've seen on my hands and maybe toes...that's it.
Having lived in Houston and in Victoria, I would see that many mosquitoes in one DAY!

We call them palmetto bugs here. Eeeesh, Too big and too fast moving and make a sickening crunch if you have to crush one.
