The Top Six Common Misconceptions About Texas.

* That everything is twice as big in Texas. - Really everything is 1.865 times bigger, but we round up.

* That the women have big hair. - In fact this was outlawed in July 1977. There is a task force and they are doing their best to reach every last woman. Bear with us.

* That Texas gets extremely hot in the summer. - Actually we only have 2-3 days of real heat in Texas ... real heat being when there is over a 75% probability of self-combustion.

* That JR Ewing still lives here. - That was a tv show people! Come on! Chuck Norris, on the other hand, is a real, karate-choppin' Texas Ranger.

* That we have killer bees, fire ants, gigantic roaches and mosquitoes and other awful insects, tornadoes, hurricanes, and damaging hailstorms. - I don't know where this pack of hysteria got started, but we're gonna assume it's from some non-Texan type. We tend to think of them as a few bitty bugs and a bad hair day.

* That everyone speaks with a Texas accent. - Y'all just don't know what y'all are talking about.
