I have always suspected that the State of Texas has "something in the water"; some rare element which causes acute stupidity. I used to think that maybe it was merely the lack of a diverse gene-pool, which caused "whackos" to frequently appear in the "Lone Star State". The state of Texas has brought us such memorable "crazies" as Ross Perot, and David Koresh. When George W. Bush became governor, and then President of the United States, I was convinced that it must be some sort of contagious-disease. It cannot merely be attributed to excess consumption of "Lone-Star" and "Pearl" Beer. Today, another example of this phenomenon surfaced in Waco Texas. A minister was electrocuted, today while performing a "baptism" in a river near Waco, (NOT FAR FROM CRAWFORD). He was standing in water, "up-to-his-chest", and someone handed him a microphone!! As "Forrest Gump" once said: "Stupid is, as stupid does"!! Isn't it "common-knowledge" that you NEVER USE AN ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE , WHILE STANDING IN WATER??? If there is "some rare element" which produces such morons, I want the priveldge of naming it. This stupidity-inducing substance should henceforth be called: "DUM-ASS-IUM"!!! or perhaps "DUBYUH-TONIUM"!!!................Dave
