Texas, Texas, Texas. And...bubbly beverages, good bartenders, smart boys who know how to pick up a tab, NYC, seafood, a full night's sleep, Texas, running the show, big cities and wide expanses of land in the country, lazy time on the river, honky tonk, shoes, Texas, rock n roll, challenges, being me, Karaboo & Jason Cox & The Meez (not in any particular order), the Longhorns, and Sheriff Buford T. Justice.

You Are Austin
A little bit country, a little bit rock and roll.
You're totally weird and very proud of it.
Artistic and freaky, you still seem to fit in... in your own strange way.
Famous Austin residents: Lance Armstrong, Sandra Bullock, Andy Roddick
