Texians !??

noticed that too, didja, Doc?

Over nineteen years in the Lone Star State, and I'd never heard it before. Saw El Paso go from 75,000 to over a million, lived in West-Enough Texas to see about 270 degrees of the Badlands of Old Mexico from the back yard. Been to Rose's Cantina. Lived in tiny towns in East Texas where they didn't know what a Mexican was, except from History, and Dad was an Aggie-

and I'd never heard the term Tex-Mex until I'd been outta there for a few years, then just in reference to Southwest Cuisine, and some kinda
Meskin-Cowboy Music.

who'da thunkit?

apolitically imprecise Lumpster
