LTAWACS Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Come on guys, give him a break. I think it's kinda sad that some of you make fun of a quality contributor to this site. I too love Texas, Dominax. It's a big state and it will always be in my heart. As big as it is, it takes many hours to traverse and has many geological regions and many fascinating places. Are you from Texas Dominax? Where exactly are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayouCityGirl Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I'm confused. Isn't Alaska the biggest state. We come in 2nd.Our food is bigger and so is our tummies! :9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Yes, Alaska is the largest state. For some reason he decided to limit the United States to just the states that would prove his point.It's like New York bragging that it's the biggest state in the Tri-State Area. Whoopdie-freakin-do. You're either the biggest or your not. And even though I like Texas, it's not the biggest state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stretch of highway in West Texas ain't nothin to brag about I hear. This whole "Texas can whoop your state" mentality is precisely why a lot of the country looks at us as a bunch of idiots. It's not a bad place but a lot of it is essentially a wasteland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijonmang Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 I dont think the drive out in west texas is bad at all...at least there are mountains and terrain to see...we dont have crap to look at around here...except downtown of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouCityGirl Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 actually depends on your perception: West Texas has mountains and desert (Big Bend) Gulf: Beaches East Texas: Swamp (exotic) Central: Rolling Hills North Texas: um... hrm... farm maybe? I don't know. 4 or 5 big Megacities: Houston, Dallas/Ft.Worth, San Antonio, El Paso (its counted as one of the largest cities in Texas), etc... but how many states have all this included? It defines Texas has having alot of characteristics in its terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashikaga Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Oh, close enuf.I highly recommend the book entitled, "The Five States of Texas" by Donald Whisenhunt. In the state constitution, the state would be allowed to divide up into five separate states. This book explains the advantages of that since Texas is so big.

YakuzaIce Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Just curious do you all think Texas would be five states now if slavery had not been such a controversial issue when Texas was annexed? I know the north/abolitionists were against Texas splitting seeing as how it would give the south more control in the senate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamtagon Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 4 or 5 big Megacities:Houston, Dallas/Ft.Worth, San Antonio, El Paso (its counted as one of the largest cities in Texas), etc...If you were to consider El Paso - Juarez as single metropolitian stastical area, I think the population would be over 3 million.McAllen - Reynosa as well as Brownsville - Harlingen - Matamoros both should tally close to two million (maybe more) in a metro statistical area. Los Laredos are probably close to if not greater than one million in population.El Paso is the next of the Texas metros - first outside the Texas Triangle - I expect to begin registering 20-30% increases in population from census to census. El Paso is the next Phoenix??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
