I Want To Thank Y'all

We have been here almost a week (San Antonio) and my wife and I have just met a solid string of the nicest people one could imagine. I don't know what I thought people in Texas would be like, but I guess I just never knew they'd be so danged nice!

Just amazing, warm, generous people, without fail, every last one of them..........okay, maybe the woman working the counter at Quizno's was a little gruff when she sneered at my wife's 'large' sandwich, then at her 120 pounds, and grumbled, "She ain't never gonna eat that," before slapping a plastic bag on the tray with an unveiled (and partially toothless) look of disgust.

But other than THAT........I couldn't be happier that my son will spend four (or more) great years in your Republic.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I bet she is from Arkansas not Texas.

The reason the folks in Texas are so nice and friendly is because every one has a concealed carry permit.
