    Alaska makes Texas look like Rhode Island.

    LOL Worried about size little fella?

    Ten years ago (before obama) Texas' economy was rank # 8 worldwide (at that time its economy was larger than Russia's, Canada's & Australia's). Today it's GSP ranks 14th worldwide (now behind the three previously mentioned).

    It's safe to assume that your work, home, personal items and clothing contain elements of products that originated from Texas. (eyeglasses, interior paint, carpet, light switches, computer, furniture, plastics, etc.)

    Texas is either a world leader or among the world leaders in aerospace, medical, bio engineering, manufacturing, shipping, energy and is the largest producer and center of the power grid for North America....and dont forget about our beautiful women in tight jeans embracing forgiving hearts, great senses of humor, and thank gawd - short memories.

    Houston is the most prominent hub of the oil industry and is considered to be the oil capital of the world.

    Texas does not have an income tax and its budget has enjoyed a surplus for years. It would thrive very well if it seceded from the US.

    Other an abundance of hairy legged women:devil: & mosquito infested Tundra, :bigsmile: Alaska doesnt best Texas in any noteworthy categories. Its GSP is nationally ranked #46 out of the 51 states.

    Cmon, admit it. You know it. We all know it - Alaska is a mere backwater podunk town in comparison to Texas- and it is an insult to logic to even think about mentioning it in the same conversation.
  • I'm from San Juan Texas idk if it even counts as Texas since it's so deep in the south lol

    I'm in Weatherford. First week on MFP, and somewhat new to Texas.
  • /agreed
  • I love going to Sprouts, it makes me happy. haha.
    I would love for Whole Foods to be closer!
  • I apparently failed at quoting text so it looks like I was talking to myself, which is completely acceptable. ;-]

    /agreed - was meant for Czech Stop being awesome.

    I love going to Sprouts, it makes me happy. haha. I would love for Whole Foods to be closer! - was meant for someone commenting on Sprouts popping up all over.

    Anyways, now that I've failed and look somewhat crazy, I too live in Texas and need to work on this whole healthy eating/working out thing. DFW area here. I would love to add friends for motivation.

    Good luck with the losing or maintaining weight, working out, and generally getting healthier.

    I have nothing productive to add other than if you cut Alaska in half each half is still bigger than Texas :-P

    This made me laugh. My best friend lives in Anchorage and every time I visit I hear stuff like this constantly. Alaskans are obsessed with outdoing Texas. They take the time to print T-shirts and make novelty items they buy for themselves. Texans, on the other hand, don't even care Alaska exists. the dynamic is so funny to see side-by-side.

    H-town here.

    Is there some kind of junk food militia force feeding you?

    Why would being from a certain state make you eat it? Healthy eating is just as easy.


    * self-righteous mode on*

    'junk food militia' PMSL :laugh:
