Can't Out Smart Texans (5)

Modern Technology



After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, New York
scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 100 years and came to the
conclusion, that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100
years ago.

Not to be out-done by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed,
in California an archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after,
headlines in the LA Times newspaper read: 'California archaeologists have found
traces of 200 year old copper wire and have concluded that their ancestors
already had an advanced high-tech communications network a hundred years
earlier than the New Yorkers.'

One week later, a local newspaper in Texas reported the following:

After digging as deep as 30 feet in his pasture near Cut-n-Shoot,
Montgomery County , Texas , Bubba Rathbone, a self-taught archaeologist,
reported that he found absolutely nothing. Bubba has therefore concluded that
300 years ago, Texas had already gone wireless.


Texans are an intelligent bunch...

A Texan was on a cattle buying trip when an old farmer came up and said. Your from Texas aren't you. The Texan said yes I am. The old farmer said, you are buying a lot of cattle, just how big is your ranch.
The Texan replies, you can get in the car and drive all day and still not be at the end of my ranch.
The old farmer stood there for a moment rubbing his chin and said, Yup we use to have a car like that too.

An Alaskan was in a bar bragging about how big Alaska was when a Texan walks up and said, "if you don't shut up about how big your state is, we'll cut Texas in half and then you'll be the third largest state.

LOL!
