Big Lake

Here in the great state of Texas, there is a town called Big Lake. (I can say the great state of Texas because it is a great state. We have no state income tax, a tax free shopping weekend in August, we have beeches, mountains, and forests. There is so much land in Texas that you can drive all day without leaving the state. The show Austin City Limits is filmed right here in Texas. It is the home of Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Nolan Ryan, and the Texas Rangers. Texas is also the location of the Johnson Space Center, which controls the shuttles once they are in orbit. This is a fact that completely escapes me, why not just do everything in one place. What can one expect from a taxpayer funded government operations, after all they are not in it to make money, but to, "Go where no man has gone before.") The town of Big Lake is not near a lake, a face that I find, interesting.
