Between Dachshunds and Chihuahuas, we're both doomed. :-D<br /><br />I've heard prairie dogs carry the "plague flea," but I can't attest to that from personal experience. I'm hoping possums haven't joined them in their quest to annihilate the human race, because a possum has decided under my house makes the perfect condo. :-\Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05740371055384281988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-18183735423578455222015-04-17T17:21:57.911-05:002015-04-17T17:21:57.911-05:00Lord, Doris, if the Texas legislature does much mo...Lord, Doris, if the Texas legislature does much more good work of this sort, every inch of the state will be the Official State Capital of something. :-DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05740371055384281988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-860440634350992362015-04-17T17:20:38.706-05:002015-04-17T17:20:38.706-05:00Yay, Bucyrus!

We just legalize pot and mellow out (Couldn't help that one). But speaking of contentious, I would pose that Colorado would be the biggest state if we flattened all the forteeners ( over 50+) no one could touch us. <br /><br />All joking aside, I loved this post.

Yepp, we earned the right against Sheboygan, Wi to win the title.

Can you just imagine all that ice and snow with wind chills way below zero. Ugh.<br /><br />Now that you mention it, I can't believe Texas doesn't have an armadillo capital!

I only ever saw one live armadillo the year I lived in Texas, but there were plenty of them dead on every road. In San Antonio I saw a shop with armadillo pocketbooks. I wanted one, but never bought one. Thinking back on it now, I made the right decision. Imagine finding the armadillo purse in the back of a dark closet by surprise. It may not be Sarah J.
