(These were going to be spread out in serial form, but you probably need to hear them all at once in progressive sequence.)
#1 You know you’ve met a real Texan . . .
He greets the August heat with, “Ah, this is why I live in Texas.”
(may be stretching it a bit when the heat lingers through September—updated 9-20-15)
#2 You know you’ve met a real Texan . . .
His views on citizenship and immigration are very clear:
+GOD
+GUNS
+FENCE
+FRIENDSHIP
+ENGLISH*
+EARN**
If you want to join us, believe all this, become a Texan.
*We can forgive you if you can’t speak Texan because you weren’t born here, but native Texans (and new) speak English.
**That means WORK. In Texas you can sweat without working, but you can’t work without sweating.
Note: Except for a fence on the south, these views apply to immigration across any Texas border.
And, we practice what we preach on all the above.

“SECEDE? Y’all are lucky we don’t invade”
