Everything is bigger in Texas t-shirtRobert at middlezonemusings.com left a comment on my post regarding why Florida is superior to North Carolina, about why Texas is better than both places. I promised myself that Texas would be addressed very quickly, so here it is:

7 Reasons Florida is Better Than Texas

  1. NASA Headquarters is in Houston, TX. NASA launches rockets at Cape Canaveral, FL. When people go to a shuttle launch, they go to Florida because that is where the action is.
  2. Illegal immigrants in TX cross the Rio Grande. Illegal immigrants in FL cross the Florida Straits. Florida’s illegals are tougher.
  3. Floridians do not feel the need to brag about size. After all, we live in the only state in the US shaped like a phallus.
  4. Texas: Two NFL teams, in Houston and Dallas. Florida: Three NFL teams, if you count the Dolphins (weak, I know).
  5. Top industry in Florida: Tourism, because everyone wants to be here. Top industry in TX: T-shirts bragging about size.
  6. People may move to Florida to die, but I once made the mistake of visiting Austin in June and thought I was dead and consigned to the fiery depths of hell.
  7. Prediction: David Garrard of the Jacksonville Jaguars will outperform Tony Romo of the Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs. Romo = Choke-o

    2. Your heated pool in Florida is good year round and you don’t have to worry about sand storms.

    3. Lived in both places (Florida and Texas).. there is absolutely NO comparison! Florida rocks! Texas is way too uptight and white, if you know what I mean. It’s a hot, humid and flat forever. Yeah, maybe Florida shares a bit of those characteristics, but Florida has greenery! It’s like a friggen rain forest here in South Florida. Banana trees, palm trees, Royal Poinciana trees, trees and trees everywhere! And we have a seashore like NOTHING they have in Texas. In fact, their water is so nasty it turned my white t-shirt dingy brown when I swam at Galveston.

Tell me what you're thinking...
