Texas...
Willie Nelson
Lyle Lovett
Robert Earle Keene
(^not into country except for the preceding three, all of who are great)
Don Henley
Buddy Holly
Roy Orbison
Janis Joplin
Billy Gibbons
Butthole Surfers
Pantera
South by Southwest (event)
And that is just a taste of the musicians from here.
Shall I go on?
I have a nice house on 10 acres bought for less than what someone would pay for a POS apartment in SF or Manhattan. There are areas of high real estate cost here of course but they are still cheap for what you get.
+1 on all the race tracks and the year-round racing/biking/sailing/whatever season
Bird Island Basin (windsurfing mecca)
South Padre Island
80 MPH speed limit on I-10 west of Kerrville. Highest in the U.S. according to my latest intel.
five distinct geographic regions: great plains, Eastern piney woods, coastal plains, hill country (whoohoo) and Sonoran desert.
Most, and meanest motherfucking tornadoes anywhere (OK that could be a minus, but huge thunderstorms are very cool as long as you do not get hit by hail or a twister. The awesome power of nature). Oh yeah and hurricanes.

Wait, this just in. The Santa Ana winds in California are caused by the fact that Reno really blows. It's true.
Seriously, just returning fire. No real animosity against most places, except for Juarez... and Mogadishu... and Pyongyang...

Reno is like a dirtier, shittier version of Vegas. Nothing but hatchet man stickers and ugly women there. We see 10's in Texas everyday; ****, I'm dating one. The only good thing about Reno is it's close proximity to Tahoe.

I hated everyday I was there for the months I was there... I hate feeling like my whole body is asleep when it rains. I hate the fact your freeways is like driving on a hot-wheel track. Its sad when your damn freeway system has U-turnoffs built. For being sooo close to the mexican border... your mexican food sucks.
