    You just need to get the hell out of Texas DD. It's like the Stone Age there.

    That's just a misconception by people who don't live here. I've lived in California before i came here and Texas is much more preferable.

    There are many intelligent sensible people here also. Texas has the the largest and possibly best medical center in the world. If you have heart related disease or cancer there's no better place to be. Texas A&M, Rice and UT are among the top universities in the country.

    The Houston Ship Channel keeps the economy fairly stable. Houston had one of the lowest unemployment rate throughout this recession.

    We also have NASA.

    Yet, every time someone mentions Texas, a redneck cowboy comes to mind. I blame that mostly on Hollywood and jackasses like Rick Perry. Bill White is the major of Houston and I've met him on a few occasion. He seems like a fairly down to earth guy so hopefully he'll win the next Governor election.
