Don't Mess With Texas

Today I was looking at the Wikipedia entry of museums in the United States, because I will go just about anywhere that has museum in the title. I was noting the ones that I wanted to go to, and thinking back on ones I had been to. When I got to the Texas section, I saw "Alamo-San Antonio," and it took me a minute to realize that I had even been to the Alamo. Then I tried to visualize it in my head, and I thought, "Hmm, I don't really remember the Alamo." Then I just had to laugh out loud and/or feel bad about myself, because if there is one thing that Americans have been instructed to do, it is Remember the Alamo.

Well, and also never forget 9/11. You have to have a really good memory to be American.
