this is my salute to Texas shot.

complete with pump jack in the back, cowboy hat, my 'Don't Fuck with Texas' shirt
and the obligatory belt (with my name on the back of course) and Texas buckle shining proudly!!!


Texans are very proud of their home.

I remember my sister was interested in this guy once and asked me...
"Do you think that guy over there is from Texas?"
I said, "if he was, he would have already told you! and if he's not, you don't wanna embarrass him."

where in minnesota? thats where i grew up

as for texas. ive never been. but its part of the south. so im a bit skeptikal on how cool it could actually be. :P austin seems to be the only haven of decent music and liberalness that ive heard of...otherwise i just think of evil uneducated power/money hungry fascists when i hear the word texas.
Is it me or are alot of the LA dubstep heads from the midwest... GB, WI here!

As for texas, my notions about people from there have been blown away in the past few years... It almost seems like Wisconsin is more country in some ways. Ive met quite a few people from there and they all cool in my book.

yea, my uncle is the press agent for the animal liberation front. i guess that puts him in the whole eco-terrorist group. got a lot of respect for the man though, fighting animal rights on the front line

I don't normally shop here but it is ridiculous how many shops are in one area:
http://www.sanantoniocvb.com/tanger_outlet_mall.asp

I heard on the news the other night that the Tanger Outlet in San Marcos was either the #1 or #2 tourist attraction in the state. Very sad indeed.

They have buses that come up from Mexico specifically to go to this outlet mall. nutty.

austin is about an hour north of san antonio. you should come up on May 2nd for the monthly dubstep nite. if you cant drive im sure you could carpool with some of the san antonio heads that make the trip each month.

and since your looking for trainers, you should try to find someone selling out of their trunk in a parking lot. mostly air force ones and jordans though.
