Thanks, Matt Kennedy, for the f/book reminder.

The election is STILL about putting a wall up to keep Mexicans out.

It's a never ending story. But maybe Texas should just take over Mexico? One big union, sort of thing. Then we'd have to put up a wall to keep the Yankees out...

I still remember the first time I went to the Alamo. It was like being in a church. Same with Gettysburg.

Adrienne's right: both the Alamo and Gettysburg were very somber places. Much like Dachau near Munich, and lately the little church near ground zero in Manhattan. No loud voices from the tourists, simply very hushed conversations about the historical significance.

I know what you mean -- I was strangely moved at the Alamo. Like being in a church. Well put. The River Walk? Different story altogether...
