This is so true, is it not?
(As an aside, I owe you, or one of your friends an apology - they left a long proverb on my blog comment page, and I didn’t understand a word of it, and marked it as spam! Forgive me. Next time, to the commenter, I say - please provide translation for us poor ignorant Texans.
