You can drive the beefest, gas-gusler, overcompensating-ly macho pickup truck (complete with samurai sword rack in the back ;) ) you can find, and you won't automatically be called a hick, a hillbilly, or a cowboy. (Even "Yuppie Soccer Moms" and "flamboyantly Proud Male Ballet dancer thespians" can and DO drive pickups like that down here!) Seriously. one of my Drama professors was as flaming as a character lovechild of Noel Coward, Nicky Silver, and Tennessee Williams, and he STILL had a bigger extended cab and DIESEL, than I did!

Only ever been to Dallas once, seemed like a nice enough place. I saw the movie "Deep Blue Sea" for the first time in a hotel room there. Me, I'm a Pittsburgh gal, born and raised.
Zombie Girl--- The 'Burg is a nice enough place...except when it's like... I dunno a gazillion below zero cold...but other than that...quite nifty! :)
