I was actually watching a doc on the Alamo, etc. when I heard it :)

Santa Ana attempting to stop the insurgents...illegal aliens, from over running their country ;)

Laura San Giacomo mentions Texicans in Quigley Down Under.

TEXIANS were a free folk, who governed themselves based on what was best for other Texians.

TEXANS are not. :)

Watching Ken Burn's "Country" series, I also learned that everyone who "invaded" CA in the dust bowl was an "Okie"...regardless of where they came fron... and it was a derogatory slur...who knew?

I don't get out much :)

At a local BBQ place, the restaurant is decorated inside with old license tags form many states. Every single Texas tag is displayed upside down. All the other tags are right way up.
