Wierd Texas Fact off the top of my head:

My favorite town in the whole world is Fredericksburg, Texas. Fredericksburg, when it was founded was basically the last stop on the frontier until you hit California. Once you left Fredericksburg, there was nothing but desert and Indians waiting for you for some time....and even when El Paso became a townthe size of Fredericksburg, it was some weeks away. When they laid out the town, they knew they would be the gateway for Eastern Travelers going to the Western Wilderness, and Western Teavlers headed for Eastern Civilization.

If you were an Easterner going west, you'd pass the following streets.

Crockett Street
Orange Street
Milam Street
Edison Street
Bowie Street
Acorn Street
Cherry Street
Kay Street

If you were a westerner going to the East, you passed the following streets.

Adams Street
Llano Street
Lincoln Street
Washington Street
Elk Street
Lee Street
Columbus Street
Olive Street
Mesquite Street
Eagle Street.

Can't figure out where I'm going with this? Read the first letters of all those streets. :)

And now you know...
...the rest of the story...
...good day!

That's nauseating. You truly are in Hell. I shall pray to Eris for your souls liberation.
