Deep in the Heart of Texas

I'm going to Texas tomorrow. I don't have much experience with the Lone Star State. My most notable experiences with Texas are the following:

1. When I was 6-years-old my family drove from South Carolina to Utah. I sang "Deep in the Heart of Texas" for a good portion of the trip (sorry!). My rendition of the song was made worse by the fact that I only knew two of the verses (and they're SHORT verses, couplets really) which I sang in a loop for miles and miles and miles. The only person who appreciated my song was a Texan at one of rest stops along the way (apparently my singing persisted both in and out of the car).

2. My mom and I once missed a connecting flight in Dallas-Ft. Worth and spent the night there. I don't remember if we enjoyed our stay or not. Texas did not leave a deep impression from the airport to our hotel and back again.

I don't know if you'll like it here (sometimes I don't like it here) but I'm glad you're coming. :)

When are we getting our report on TX, MBC-style? I bet Texas gave you great fodder.
