Think you know Texas?
Cowtown Pattie has momentarily left Texas Trifles in order to put up a short Texas trivia quiz over at Texas Bloggers. It's a humbing experience for moi. I think I know the answers to about two of the questions, and I'm probably not even right about them.
Jeff, this looks like something you'd be able to ace in your sleep. How about it?
Technorati tag: Texas
Eric, I gave it a try ... but I AM a dang Yankee from back east, after all.
That screwed Eastern perspective of mine had me wonderwing about the answer to Pattie's first question ... because of the Texas angle, I answered Villa-Mexico ... but what about the British in Maryland and Washington D.C. in 1812?
Wallace, the "Shot the Law" question ... that's one of the ones I missed ... of course, I'm not as old as SOME people in this room :-)
