Right. Time to settle this once and for all. I present the mother of all contests:
The Biggest State in the Union versus the Biggest State in the Union. Or

France versus Texas.

I shall open with a random picture of just another fountain in just another provincial town, Nancy.

Maybe this should go to backroom?This can turn out very intresting.

I'm confused are we posting picture of how Texas is better than France?

Craterus 02:03 03-19-2006

Those pictures don't exist

Kagemusha 02:12 03-19-2006

Hmm..This sounds hard.And i dont even have an opinion so there you go

Louis VI the Fat 02:26 03-19-2006

Kagemusha's picture of a Texas landscape proves Craterus' point.

I'll further prove it with this picture of the fertile fields of France in full flower:

Strike For The South 02:26 03-19-2006

Texas Shot Texas steel and Texan blood

Strike For The South 02:29 03-19-2006

Beirut 02:36 03-19-2006

Just keep it peaceful or I'm calling in BKS to open up the smack down on y'all et vous.

Louis VI the Fat 02:56 03-19-2006

Ah, the Alamo, where 200 Texans spend 13 days without ever managing to find the exit.

Here is 'Liberty leading the people', the heroism with which our Republic was forged:

Crazed Rabbit 03:27 03-19-2006

Texas vs. France? Do these French people like pain, or something?

I forget, which one of the 11 various republics, empires, restored monarchies, etc., since 1783 was that? And I don't recall the Texas revolution having a period called the 'Reign of Terror'

This is a little too freaky. There is a poem I heard in a club in New York, and here it is in its entirety:

Texas versus France
Who wins?

It's as though the poet were channeling the spirit of the Org ...

Strike For The South 04:11 03-19-2006

TEXAS-678,054 SQ KM france-547,030 SQ KM

TEXAS=131,024 KM bigger than France

Csargo 04:38 03-19-2006

Alexanderofmacedon 04:45 03-19-2006

Oh this sucks...

I love Texas, my home state, but France is awsome...

I've been there many a time and I hope to move there one day!

Kaiser of Arabia 05:01 03-19-2006

Well it comes down to:

Fight
or

Collaborate, only to be liberated and claim that you won the fight despite you fought against the victors in North Africa. And lost there, too.

Strike For The South 05:07 03-19-2006

it all comes down to this

Yeah? Well, at its greatest extent, Texas was still smaller than France at its greatest extent...

...twice.

Let's see... a place that claims to be "God's Country", or a country that was essentially founded by a man who saved a pope, and as later crowned Emperor by that pope...

(no offense, Strike.

)

Csargo 05:13 03-19-2006

I'm pretty sure the french are losing this battle

Strike For The South 05:16 03-19-2006

noZorba TEXAS is still bigger

Kaiser of Arabia 06:22 03-19-2006

Ah, but at it's greatest extent, France was never led by an actual Frenchman.

Ah, Corsican is close enough. Besides, Charlemagne is as true as you can get.

Corsican = Italian and Italian = Italian, therefore Corsican = Italian >or=Napoleon =/ Frenchman

He was of German blood and speech, and shared some characteristics of his people- strength of body, courage of spirit, pride of race, and a crude simplicity many centuries apart from the urbane polish of the modern French.

Somehow I always thought Alaska was the biggest state in the Union...

Alexanderofmacedon 07:39 03-19-2006

It is...

spmetla 10:22 03-19-2006

I guess the maps with 50 states are still traveling across the atlantic. Hope everyone realizes Hawaii isn't a territory anymore.

Shaka_Khan 11:09 03-19-2006

And Texas has oil.
