Nobody does.

But Texans don't typically go to Wyoming to ski.  Primarily Colorado and New Mexico, with maybe a little bit of Utah.

Colorado really hates Texans

not sure why

I mean we let them sell their beer here (although its really not that good)

we spend a lot of tourist dollars there

in fact if we Texans stopped going to Colorado they would have to file bankruptcy

Arizona has all the hummingbirds. 

If they fly non-stop from FL to Mexico, it must be over pirate-infested waters.
Hey we agree on something :)

I will easily see a least a half a dozen hummingbirds in my backyard every day without a feeder, just the landscaping I have.

not sure why either except for Texans being very obnoxious and loud and usually knowing very little, especially about skiing

I've done all my skiing in Colorado.  Most of it near Durango and Telluride - close to Texas

So, I got the second Shingrix shot yesterday (shingles).  The first one made me feel bad day and a half.  This one taken at noon was fine until I went to bed around 10 PM.  I started shivering uncontrollably, I had to put a pen between my teeth.  The wife covered me up with blankets and I finally took Tylenol.  Then I woke at 3 AM feeling  gnarly but nor shivering.  I almost got the flu shot yesterday as well, the wife talked me out of that.

This is a dead virus vaccine but apparently a minority react fairly badly.  I'm "OK", and it's better than getting shingles, but that was not much fun for a while.


About year or two ago, my mother got the shingle vaccine and promptly got the shingles. At the time she was one of 13 known cases of people getting the shingles from the vaccine.  She was even interview by the CDC.

I had a neighbor with a regular bird feeder. Everyday a squirrel would climb up there and eat all of the seeds. He thought the birds were just really hungry. Everyday he'd check it, see that it was empty again, shake his head, and then load it back up. Wash, rinse, repeat.

All the same things that Europeans say about Americans in general.  Bigotry knows no borders.

A few years ago my boss and I went to Denver on a business trip

we were returning to our motel and just about to pull into a parking space when all of a sudden a car

whips around us and parks in our spot 

I say something like who the hell does he think he is and then we notice his Texas license plate and a Houston sticker on the back of his car

we just looked at each other and laughed

It is a terrible idea to anger someone while you are parking. 

They know where your car is parked, and that it will be unattended for a while.

We used to have a regular bird feeder. It was great to watch the birds go after it, but it caused tons of seed material to hit the ground. And then we started seeing the rats. 

Wife said "bird feeder is going bye-bye". I did some research and found spicy bird seed which doesn't bother birds [they aren't affected by capsaicin] but apparently mammals hate it.

Not these rats. Must have grown up on spicy Mexican and Thai cooking here in SoCal...

So we only have the hummingbird feeders now.

A bird feeder in a yard is like having a dog or cat in a house.
