Texas Country Wisdom

One of the great things about living in Texas is the characters that you meet. I was talking to one of my friends in Hillsboro yesterday after church. He is in his 70s and sometimes shares "country wisdom" with me.

Yesterday he tells me that he drives a 1966 pickup truck. (They must drive his wife's car to church because I didn't see that old truck in the parking lot.)

Anyway, he tells me that his friends always tell him that he should get the old truck repainted.

With a smile on his face the man tells me "The only thing I would ever paint on that truck is the hood and the part of the door where I rest my arm, because that's all I can see when I'm driving down the road."
