Does he mean, "This is Texas, and random gunfire is a fact of life"? Or does he mean, "This is Texas, and I dont have to threaten anyone, they know what I mean"?<BR/><BR/>Also, it turns out that guy's cousin has invited Sheehan and friends to set up camp on his property which is even nearer the Bush ranch. <BR/><BR/>That's going to be one awkward Thanksgiving dinner. I sure hope the Cowboys play well, or it'll get ugly.Otto Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14051682366565874144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13930960.post-1124294565213787252005-08-17T12:02:00.000-04:002005-08-17T12:02:00.000-04:00Does anyone else find the following non sequitor h...Does anyone else find the following non sequitor hysterical:<BR/>"I ain’t threatening nobody, and I ain’t pointing a gun at nobody," Mattlage said.

Sure, he shouldn't be spending 20% of his presidency on vacation.
