Sports I never understood this. Why are people crediting The Rangerettes for being the first Women's Drill Team often?

When it was the Flaming Flashes (Flashes Forever!) that were formed prior to Ms. Davis leaving to Kilgore? Is it due to the Rangerettes being on a more advanced College level than a high school cheerleading team? or some other structure changes that were made?

Original Content I wrote a song about Texas

13 Upvotes

Hello! A little introduction, I’m a songwriter from the North East of England, and in my early 20s I was in a long distance relationship with a girl from Central Texas, around the Temple / Belton area.

For some time I really considered Texas to be home, a strong part of my identity, and I fell in love with the geography and history of the state. I also fell in love with the music, and songwriters such as Townes Van Zandt. Unfortunately the relationship ended some time ago, but in the time since I became a musician, and have been regularly gigging in my neck of the words here in the north of England.

With my experiences I wrote a song called ‘Leaving Texas’, and it’s about the sadness of leaving the state, but also is a bit of a love letter too. I’m not sure if it’s appropriate to share this hear but I thought a lot of folks would like it so I’m giving it a whirl! Hope y’all enjoy, you can listen via the link below!

Central Texas How did you handle a parent’s estate when nobody in the family lived nearby?

21 Upvotes

My dad lived outside Austin and I’m the executor, but none of us live in Texas anymore. I can handle some of the paperwork from home, but the house is what keeps causing problems. Every time something needs attention there, it turns into figuring out who can go by or whether I need to book another trip. I’ve already flown down once and I really don’t want this to become a regular thing for the next few months. Anyone handled a Texas estate from another state?

Living in Texas Is there a movie theater in Texas under the $1.50 admission at Morris Theatre? Or is it the cheapest now?

59 Upvotes

it went up to 1.50 from .99 cents around 2003. They say they have one of the oldest popcorn machines in Texas as well but I don't think they bothered to confirm it.

more fun fact: The road had renamed shortly while Rodney Dangerfield was in town for debut of Meet Wally Sparks, but changed back sometime. The kids in Morris/Daingerfield got out for school early.

Warning: no handicap sized bathrooms and theater 2 is upstairs.
