Front window is still legal as long as it is legible from the front. At least 50% of the the word "Texas" has to be legible too.

I hear that.

And let's just agree to disagree on the monkey (Bush) vs. the messiah (Obama).

I don't think that Bush is the #1 cause of this downfall right now. He'll be blamed for it, but in 20 years, the true cause will hopefully be apparent. My bet is that there are a lot of little factors involved... mostly related to keeping the various bubbles alive for far too long (the real estate, dot com, y2k, etc.).

Have you factored in Real Estate taxes Something like $1/square foot.

F Texas! You got me on the women thing; yours are dumb as door nails but beautiful. Ours all have PhD's

As far as the rest of the South - Wonderful
Funny how people who knock it still wanna come and post up in our threads though.

Surprised you made it that long. When I was in the Marines MP's had nothing better to do then give people a hard time for no front plates.
