    <summary>Two Texans were driving through New Hampshire. As they were approaching Lake Winnipesaukee, they started arguing about the pronunciation of the lake&apos;s name. They argued back and forth until they stopped for lunch. As they stood at the counter, one said to the young lady behind the counter, &quot;Before we order, could y&apos;all please pronounce where we are, very slowly?&quot; The blonde leaned over the counter and said, &quot;Burrrrrr-gerrrrr Kinnnng.&quot;...</summary>

        Comrades,

   You know, of course, the reason all Texas college football fields use Astro-Turf instead of grass? 

   It keeps the cheerleaders from grazing at half-time.....

   I understand that the locals living around Texas A&amp;M caution new folks to keep their car windows rolled up when driving by the campus... Seems it keeps the &quot;U&quot; from tossing a diploma through the window....

   Aggies? heh.. Go UMaine Black Bears!

   Respects to all concerned,

       AW1 Tim

  I don&apos;t know about all that other TX stuff, being from Philly, where the answer would have been &quot;I don&apos;t have time fordis $hit!  Whaddaya have?!&quot;

  That was funny.  And way too true, like Indiana, if a Texas town doesn&apos;t have a DQ, it just ain&apos;t worth stopping in....
