Lol, I live in Houston too. Just not during the summers when I take advantage of Chicago weather at it's best!

Anyways, I know Sam Houston was a guy, and he's the one that Houston named after. I know Texas history and General Sam Houston led to Texas's freedom and became president. However, think about Houston is a very masculine name- even sounds as such.

I think Dallas is a very neutral name by sound.

We don't go to Wal*Mart.

I can think of only one Wal*Mart in Dallas and it's close to Garland and Richardson.

That's nothing unique to Dallas; you normally won't find more than one wal-mart within city limits. However, the Dallas area overall has MANY Wal-marts. Get over yourself.

Dallas vs Houston, well, as far as climate goes, I prefer Dallas. It is drier. It isn't close to the gulf like Houston is. I have never been to Houston, but I have been to Dallas, and liked it.

I count at least 8 with a Dallas address so that means there are 8 Wal-marts in Dallas.
