Life In Texas- 'It Ain't So Bad'
Chuck was sitting in an airplane when another fellow took a seat
beside him. The new guy was an absolute wreck...pale, hands
shaking, biting his nails and moaning in fear.
"Hey pal, what's the matter?" Chuck asked.
"Oh man.... I've been transferred to Texas," the other guy
answered, "there's crazy people in Texas....and they have shootings,
gangs, race riots, drugs, high crime rate...."
"Hold on," Chuck interrupted, "I've lived in Texas all my
life and it is not as bad as the media says. Find a nice home, go to work, mind
your own business, enroll your kids in a good school and it's as safe as
anywhere in the world."
The other passenger relaxed and stopped shaking for a moment
and said, "Oh thank you. I've been worried to death but if you live there
and say it's OK, I'll take your word for it. What do you do for a living?"
"Me?", said Chuck, "I'm a tail gunner on a bread truck in Laredo."
