Default Things to Do/See in Dallas?

I will be spending about a week in Dallas in early March; what are the "touristy" things to do and see there? I am guessing that the Texas School Book Depository and the new Stadium (do they have tours?) are on the list..... what else?

Yes, there are tours of Jerry World but they cost more than I wanted to pay. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (look in your wallet, most of the money probably has a little "FW" on it) in Ft. Worth has tours, no they don't give out samples. The Cavanaugh Flight Museum at ADS. Ft. Worth has a couple of the best museums in the country for Westren and Classical art a couple blocks apart. The Dallas aquarium is just a few blocks from the School Book Depository.

Not being from Dallas, I am unfamiliar with Debbie. Is it possible to expand on this topic, on a family friendly forum such as this?

Short answer is "no." You're showing your lack of age (or a sheltered childhood.)
