A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender. I wish everyone the world over had the dominating spirit that motivates Texans.– Billy Clayton, Speaker of the Texas House
No state commands such fierce pride and loyalty. Lesser mortals are pitied for their misfortune in not being born in Texas.— Queen Elizabeth II on her visit to Texas in May, 1991.
Tarantulas are pretty tame. Used to catch them when I was a kid. They hardly ever bite. Sorry to hear they are endangered. But I never see them in the big city.
Glad to hear they are still around. In the 60, 70, and 80’s saw them almost daily. Through 90s began to decline and now I can’t remember the last I have seen — kind of like horned-toad lizards.
