    Howdy from central Texas!

    Howdy from an Aggie in central Texas! I've been lurking for some time and thought it was now about time to post an introduction. I've worn a kilt (Davidson tartan) since the early 1980's . My next purchases will be kilts in the Davis tartan and the Texas Bluebonnet tartan. BTW, are there any other kilted Texas Aggies out there?

    Welcome aboard pard. You'll find a number of Texians here, dunno how many Aggies - reckon you'll find out.

    I went to grad school with an Aggie. Never could understand his preference for crayolas...

    Slainte,

    Well, not an Aggie, but my daughter used to live down in College Station as an adult. Visited her a bunch. Know where the Brazos Club in Bryan is, done a few meetings there.

    And if being conceived in Ft. Worth makes me a Texan somehow....

    Anyway, sure would like to see a pic of that Bluebonnet tartan....

    Hello and welcome! Well, Ah'm a Texan, and Ah'm an Aggie, but Ah'm not a Texas Aggie. I went to LSU (Go Tigers!) for grad school. Are there any genuine kolache bakeries left? I currently live in the Bayou City.
