Don't forget: old toilets make good flower pots. Seriously though, I hope you're happy wherever the heck you are.

After the wall is built, Austin will be like Berlin, and you'll be able to visit the Northwestern Hippy Sector as a Seattle resident. From there, you will be able to travel to the Depraved Hollywood sector and also the Elitist North East Sector.

I guess that means there will be a wall around Austin to protect the rest of the state from contamination.

This is going to be a little like all during the dust bowl when thousands of people showed up in California desperate for jobs.
Yeah, but those migrating Okies produced Buck Owens and the Bakersfield sound.

Austin's cultural stew continues to be spiked, for better or worse, by the newbies.

It wouldn't surprise me that someday Austin builds a wall around its city.

Don't get me wrong, my heart aches for what the people went through during the dust bowl. If feel for any families that are having to relocate just to try and find someplace where they can make ends meet as a result of this financial crises we find ourselves in.

so does anyone have an opinion on San Antonio versus Houston or Austin? All info would be helpful, since we are thinking of moving.
