In Texas we incorporate our suburbs into the cities (for the tax revenue), which makes Houston the geographical size of the state of Rhode Island. It has the unfortunate side effect of having people who live in places like Cyprus-Fairbanks and Friendswood legitimately say that they're from Houston, thereby confusing out-of-staters into thinking that these people live in a big city, instead of a sprawling suburb. An even more unfortnate side effect is that these people really do think they live in the big city.

I'm sure he's in a suburb area...but still close enough to ride his bike to work everyday, which of course is a relative calculation. But since he spent the first 32 years of his life in TX, I think he qualifies as a true Texan or whatever.

Oh, God, yes. We're talking about a totally outrageous paradigm.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.
