Texas Story...

The green anger

Daniel Beery, a seventeen-year-old from Denton, was looking down the barrel of a loaded potato gun when the gun accidentally went off. The teenager faces reconstructive surgery because, according to an April 16^th, 2003 article in the Houston Chronicle, the gun for some reason was loaded with a live frog, which hit him in the face “with a force more than a gun.” Daniel was lucky, says his mother. “If it had been a potato or a rock, it would have killed him. It would have blown the top of his head off.”

THE STATE CAPITAL OF TEXAS WAS FOUNDED IN 1835 AND WAS ORIGINALLY NAMED WATERLOO. ITS NAME WAS CHANGED TO AUSTIN IN 1839 IN HONOR OF STEPHEN FULLER AUSTIN, FOUNDER OF THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS.

So that was today’s look back on history.

Today the forwarder called and the airfreight have arrived and are ready to be delivered in the morning. It will happen all in one day as the furniture also will be delivered tomorrow and we can so to speak move in. Wonder if the saw something on the screening when it went through custom. At least they could not see the print on the box of Cigars I shipped across. I do not think they accept Cuban Cigars to be imported yet. I do not smoke, but on occasions it could be a nice, nice evening with good friends and may there would be some visiting that would enjoy one.

Up for a walk today...and look into the shops for missing items needed
