I had a fun dream the other night. I walked down a long hallway and came upon a giant rabbit standing in front of two doors. It spoke, “Open each door, then choose whom you wish to drive to San Antonio with. There, you’ll spend one afternoon visiting The Alamo together and five nights rippin’ it up at assorted bars with rowdy music and spicy food.” Again, together. Daytime plans were vague. I twisted the first knob.
“Howdy.” It was Merle Haggard. Dang! What a dream! “Let’s go,” he said. Wow! Merle Haggard. Second door.
“Howdy.” It was Rush Limbaugh. He looked pretty healthy and said, “Let’s go.” Wow! Amazing!
I chose Merle. Seemed more Texan. Can party with anybody. Rounded. Here’s to Texas!
