Miles. Runnels County. I have not been back since I was a few months old. I currently reside in the Houston area.
Edgar, we won't hold that against you.
So many persons have moved to our area from other states and countries that we are not all the typical snuff dipping rednecks with a big dog on the seat and a rifle mounted at the back of the pick up truck window. Pardon me while I go get Effie out of the cement pond before she drowns the pig.
I was in Houston for a few days last summer on business. My first visit to that part of Texas. It's actually a quite cosmopolitan city.
May God go with you too seaglass.
Mr. Blythe, I don't know about the rednecks you knew, but this redneck
was the advertising director of a major West Texas daily newspaper, and previous to that worked out of an office on Madison Avenue and bought national advertising for 45 Texas newspapers.
Is Miss Effie your wife?
I was joking about the picture people from other states carry of us Texans. The underlying point is, no matter where we live we can still be diverse. Effie is another play on others' impression of a Texan.
