: From an international legal stand point I must, as responsible for law and order in Ladonia,Europe, inquire as to what Texas you are refering: the so called "independent State of Texas", who disawow memebership in the Union, or the more traditional one ?
Understandable. I refer to traditional Texas, the U.S. state. Although Ladonia's environs were settled when Texas was a legal, official, free-standing Republic, I make no claims toward nor ties to the Bozos who are currently lousing up a long-standing, perfectly good *humorous* secessionist movement. Naw, all in Ladonia, TX, still pay U.S. taxes, and I'm not aware that anyone there has been involved in the hostage stand-off hundreds of miles away in West Texas (a place that, for our purposes, might as well be in a separate state altogether!).
By the way, I attended the Poke Sallet Festival yesterday. Photos and report to come.
