4. I am a graduate of the University of Oklahoma which is where one of the original rednecks lives in Norman, Ok. Big Dog Daddy is what they call him.
5. Where were you when I was looking for ZR-1 owners in North Texas?
I am taking it easy even though they got me scheduled to fly from LGA to MIA tomorrow morning.
Have a good night!

Maybe I'm reading it wrong but did I touch a nerve or something? If so, I apologize. Reading posts can be tricky. Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone is offended or mad or just joking around. I see a lot of I's in your post so it appears as though you felt the need to post your accomplishments for some reason. Again, maybe I read it wrong...
You stated you had a name for the Texas group but that we wouldn't like it. Since a typical stereotype of a Texan usually envolves being a redneck I thought I might bring up the typical stereotype of a hillbilly since your profile shows a KY residency. Kind of tit for tat. If that is a touchy subject again, my apologies.
If you were looking for North Texas Z owners prior to Sept of last year I have a great excuse if you'd be interested in hearing it. If it was after Sept I had no idea you were looking. My bad.
So what's you're suggestion for a name? I can assure you as Texans, we are pretty thick skinned. We can take it. Just don't expect us to take it laying down.
