It's odd and almost frustrating.
I live in Texas,I am very far from conservative and people I know and hang out with quite a few I work with are far from it.

However, the state as a whole kind of kills that and you cant shake that image no matter how you try.

http://chronicle.com/article/Adults-With-College-Degrees-in/125995/

So that map for example shows college degrees, and for my county it up there. but we are still as a whole the dumb hicks from Texas.
And then Rick Perry is not helping our case one bit.

Now also, Colorado has a city on the list of most conservative cities and it has my city right next to it. And I say bull, but I know that I deal with and travel in a circle that doesn't have everybody in it so yeah, pretty sure its accurate too many freaking "smart" people riding around with "Thank God for Palin" stickers to argue that.

The other good Texas phrase is when somebody asks you
"Are you from here? from Texas?"
"I wasn't born here, but I got here as soon as I could"

That translates into free beers in some places. Chips and salsa in others.

Very well? By what standards?

25 states have lower unemployment than Texas.
Texas leads the nation in the percentage of workers earning minimum wage.
24 states have a higher per capita income than Texas.
42 states have a lower poverty rate than Texas.

Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea?

Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea? I didn't. In the United States and most western countries, Fido is a family companion and while it's not ethical to judge another culture by our standards, anyone who doesn't at least (humanely) butcher the animal first is acting without proper care. South Korea relies on western consumerism for their economy and needs to be aware that we do not accept the practice of skinning and boiling dogs alive. Originally shared by April Benney Over 6,000 restaurants in South Korea are still serving dog meat even though it is now illegal. In many Asian countries dogs are boiled alive or skinned alive when slaughtered. It's an unbelievably horrendous & torturous way to die. I know a lot of you hate seeing this kind of posts on G+, but the Asian industry slaughtering dogs & cats is how I first got involved in animal rights & it will always be my main animal welfare concern. It's intolerable what is happen...

I don't make a lot of personal posts so please bear with me.

I don't make a lot of personal posts so please bear with me. #Rufus hasn't been doing well for the past week or so. I mean, he's 13 (at least), and has slowed down due to age, but the past week or two he's been acting like every movement is a Herculean effort. A few times in the past couple of weeks his rear legs have given out on him completely to where I've had to pick him up and carry him which is, in itself, telling. Rufus has always hated being carried and struggled continuously when I did so. Yesterday while petting him I noticed two golf-ball sized things up under his chin. Now, they may be benign lipomas as Rufus is covered with them (one one each thigh, one on each shoulder, one on his chest and a few smaller bumps here and there) or they may be indicative of something else. I'm no vet and aside from emergency medic battlefield training I have no medical experience whatsoever, but these new things seem to be where your or mine lymph nodes are located....

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring...
