there and back again

Undoubtedly a trip to San Antonio to go see one's aunts is a timid soul's form of adventure, unless maybe if you're from Kerrville or Boerne. But I returned with a horrible chest cold, proving at least that I'm not afraid of germs.

Anyway:
1.thanks to Rob Payne for pinch hitting, and

2.tho' I'm sick, I will rise to opine again.

by the way, do you remember the scene in Red Dawn in which Lea Thompson tells Powers Booth to name the capital of Texas and he correctly says Austin and she tells him it's Houston?

The real correct answer is "well, Austin is the capital, but the birthplace of Texas Liberty is San Antonio." And yes, I know it's a politically and historically loaded answer.
