Happy Texas Independence Day

[MacPelto]

On this day, 167 years ago, Texas declared her independence from Mexico, because the people felt that the government hurt them more than it helped.

The Texas Declaration of Independence

Long Live Texas!

(Busts into rousing rendition of "Texas, Our Texas".)

I really, really miss "home" sometimes, ya know?

Then again, I couldn't call Colorado home if it weren't for this important day, now could I?

Wonder if there'll be parties in the squares today, complete with men firing their pistols in the air...

Huzzah for Texas!

It is indeed "The Great State of Texas"

Agreed.

I'll make sure to raise a glass before I'm off to bed this evening, in honor of the best state out of the 50.

Keep up the good work, Texas!
