20. Well, yeah, but Cheesesteakistan is a minor territory of Pennsyltucky.
Not too many gun nuts there - but you can get soft pretzels!

Pittsburgh is more in the gun nut zone.

29. Here's what I remember about Houston.
My first business trip was to Houston, in the 80's.

I remember walking out of my hotel at 7 am, and my glasses immediately fogging up from the heat.

I also remember feeling like my suit was melting into my skin.

36. You should have gotten off and walked over to Caffe Caruso at Mohawk and Bleecker.
Ask for the 'back room' cappuccino.

40. Technically, it's the Republic of Texas.
It's like a state, only bigger and more corrupt. Texas is the eye of the tiger and the hole in the doughnut. Texas is little bird, tweeting in meadow. Texas is itself, and isn't anything else.
