    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    This is Texas Strike - speak Spanish!

    I seem to go in 8-10 year phases with a love/hate attitude towards country music. I'm currently in a "can't stand country music" phase. The current crop of artists/songs just makes me ill.

    As for the Texas angle, I discovered Billy Joe Shaver about 6-7 years ago. I like his stuff. He's got a way with his lyrics. And his son Eddy was quite a guitarist.

    Billy Joe is good but old. Allot of country today is filled with pop but the Texas scene is a mix of rockabilly and country. If anyones intrested look up guys like

    Kevin Fowler
    Robert Earl Keen
    Wade Bowen
    Aaron Watson
    Roger Creager
    Charlie Robison
    Reckless Kelly
    Randy Rogers Band (more pop)
    Jason Bolan and The Stragglers
    Bart Crow Band
    Blue Edmonson

    Other than Keen Youtube is few and far with these guys but its good stuff. Pure Texas

    as A Hip-Hop fan i am pretty much diametrically opposed to country music, sorry...
    Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!

    In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

    no, i know that, i was just saying that.

    The diametric opposition does not apply to you, you are immune because you are a Texan!
