You need to be more independent,
Runt. Like me. And like Texas: So
independent that at one time you
were your own sovereign fucking
nation, innit. I am full of the
independence. I’ve got a
tiny Alamo in my goddamned
heart. I’ve got a Sam Houston in my
gray matter. I’ve got a Jim
Bowie cut into my skin. Except when
The Bald Man leaves me at PetSmart. Then
I become a quivering mass of cling. Like
Florida or Ohio or some shit.

Great stuff. I should know, born on the banks of the San Antonio River, two blocks west of The Alamo. In a hospital of course, which is still there, Mexicans have occupied but not taken it back. Everyone gets weak knees, sometime. Even us cowboys.

Wow! That’s cool to be born so close to the Alamo. You’re right about weak knees, even for cowboys. Hell, I got weak in the knees today just listening to Elizabeth Cook’s accent.
