Christmas Gifts with Attitudes, Texas-style
You knew it was just a matter of time. The good folks who brought you the "Don't Mess With Texas" ad campaign are now peddling products, just in time for your holiday shopping.
Travel mugs and t-shirts are also available from what has to be in the running for Ugliest Website Ever For A Big State Agency (somebody please explain to the developer that the width and height tags are not to be used to resize photos!).
So, if you have a hard-to-shop-for Texan on your list, stop by the DMWT store and fix 'em up. Either that, or give him (or her) an IOU for something really special!
Any Texan caught in that Lincoln should have their citizenship revoked. If that ain't a Yankee sucker deal, I ain't never seen one.

Unfortunately, I predict you'll see a bunch of these tooling around immediately after release.

That hat is a sure-fire crowd pleaser at the next DNC meeting. Nice post-Nov. '04 overtones.
Found this, though, which isn't so cool.
Can the litterer find out who turned them in?
"Your submission is strictly confidential. The litterer will not be able to find out who submitted his or her name."
There's a great quote attributed to John Wayne,
"If you can't say it to a man's face, don't say it behind his back."
Don't Mess With Texas seems to have forgotten the 6th Amendment. Granted, there is no trial, but the principle remains (or should remain) the same.
I wonder how many litter bags will be sent to people who didn't litter but cut someone else off in traffic?
By the by, your gift idea is great for any "hard to shop for" Yankees on your list, too.
