I just came back from a 6 month assignment in TX (Austin). One of the
locals explained that Houston is the "arm pit" of Texas, and El Paso is the
anus. He was speaking geographically. Next time you look at a map of
Texas, think of this and have a chuckle.
The other comment about El Paso is that it is so different from the rest of
Texas, they put it in its own time zone.
Next time your brother chides you for not being able to escape from the
Tri-state area, you can throw these comments back at him ;-).
