It wasn't exactly that it ended on June 19th, but that was the day the news arrived in Texas. It's kind of a big deal here.

I think you’re confusing Texas with California. Horrible mistake. Texas owns California, and pretty much everything else...

Parts are, yes. There are also mountains, forests, rolling hills, prairies, and beaches. You should come by for a visit and we'll show you around. Our state motto is "Friendship" after all.

LOL. A quiz about Texas was too "American centric". If it were a quiz about Zambia, would it be too "African-centric"? If it were a quiz about Rome, would it be too "Italo-centric"?

Might want to switch the order on longhorn and most valuable sports franchise - starting to type "Cowboys" hits "breed of cattle" when you get the first 3 letters.

Please accept "Spanish" for "Of the six flags to fly over Texas,

which came first?" It really sounds like it is asking for an adjective. Thank you!

Actually, Anthony Texas is the last city in Texas on I-10 before you are in New Mexico. There is also an Anthony New Mexico on the other side of the border.
