Default Weather sucks in Texas

I was going to do my first cross country yesterday, but it was a bad day. I tried to fly today also, but it's the same weather again. I got all my flight planning done, but only if the weather cooperated. Oh well, I'm scheduled to fly next weekend. Hope it will be VFR weather. Just wanted to get this out of my chest.

I'm starting to get sick of the weather here too. I can't work unless the weather is halfway decent. Oh well. Looks like PB&J for a little while longer .

Apparently you've never been to chilifest. Staying within 10nm of Hobby isn't everything. Texas is awesome. It's a scientific fact.

I'd been much further away from HOU than 10 miles long before I even sent my application in to RAH.

POPA - what a ridiculous post. Texas rocks - been to Austin? San Antonio?

I prefer Texas to the United States. I grew up in Houston, College-d in San Marcos and now am exiled to Kansas City. I am pro-seccesion and think Texas should be a Republic again. Go to Rick's Cabaret, have a cool one, and re-think your silly attitude about Texas.

I can' say I hate Texas. The only place I hate in Texas is Killeen/Ft.Hood area. Just because I'm in the Army. That place is depressing, full of angry Army people, drugs, etc. That's why I'm taking flying lessons so I can get away on weekends, but then again the weather f&cks up the whole thing.

Oh I eat them all the time too. Just wish I could mix it up a little. You know, maybe a hamburger every now and again without feeling guilty for spending the 5 bucks.

I have been to both of these cities and while Austin is fun, I have been to alot better places.

That says it all about Texans!! Say it with me, Texas is a part of the United States, not the other way around! Wow, I know that was tough but you made it, good job.

Talk sh!t about your state all day long but if you say one thing bad about Texas, they will go on this long rant about how their flag is the only one that can fly as high as the American flag...blah, blah, blah. It's actually quite entertaining!
