I
had a great time in Dallas last night at
WBAP's "Rush to Texas" in support of a
benefit for
Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for
Children. WBAP is heavily involved
with them. We had 2,200 people in the
NOKIA Theatre, which is just a nice
place, a huge entertainment complex. I
saw it out of the window flying in and I
was stunned. It was just a great venue
and the crowd, the audience, was
spectacular. They had a number of Purple
Heart recipients from, I think, Iraq and
Afghanistan in the audience last night.
At the meet and greet beforehand, a
couple of Texas State Legislators
approached me,
Dan Flynn from District 2 and
Bill Zedler from District 96. They
made me an honorary Texan. They had this
big blue folder containing a certificate
they had signed along with Governor
Rick Perry. I tell you, I love going
down to Texas. Texans love being Texans,
and they love being Americans -- and for
those of you who asked, no, they don't
have any state income tax, so they had
no ulterior motive in giving me this
great honor. |
