I'm currently heading to Dallas Texas for a horror covention. I which to meet the greatest horror director ever.(George A Romero.). So, tell me. This is my first time in Texas. Is there any awsome places I need to check out while I'm down there? I, of course, don't really know the area.

Thanks.

Are you going to stay in Downtown Dallas? If so, go chack out where Kennedy was shot (Dealey Plaza), Deep Ellum is our live entertainment district (Look for a club called Trees and go in, you'll see a spot with a plaque that talks about Kurt Cobain getting his *** kicked by Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains in the club).

Go to Oakcliff. They're really friendly there. Be sure to wear bright red or blue though.

Don't do that...

Seriously...GO TO THE SPAGHETTI WAREHOUSE AND SIT IN THE TROLLY 8D AND THEN GO TO THE AQUARIUM!

I hear you can buy firearms at the family grocery store. Check to see if that is true.

Depends on the store. You can at Wal-Mart, maybe not Albertsons.

We have many a family owned Army/Navy stores though. No grocery stores carry firearms. Wal-Mart is part owned by the Walton family, and is more of a general store.

I would be a Minuteman...But it's not like you could do anything...Can't shoot 'em...YOU CAN CALL BORDER PATROL AND NATIONAL GUARD, so they can drive 2 hours to not shoot them and ask them to politely return to Mexico...We need "Operation Wetback" back...>>

DUUUUDE The Museum of Science and Natural History place is so FTW! Go there too. Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-check it out.

I have so many lines I could use right now...

"Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a *****?"
"Reach for the sky, honky."

And some others?

See but one must wonder why any group of men living in the 21st century would refer to themselves as "Minute Men". I most certainly wouldn't (aside from the fact that it'd be false advertising but all the ladies know that already)

Well my cousin works in the gun section of a Wal-Mart down in Beaumont...So I know they sell em round there. Just not allowed to see the weapon and ammunition at the same time no more. Since some fella asked to see both and he put the ammo in the gun and then shot himself in the mouth...Heheh...

You'd be roughly three hours away from ADV. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=5750+Bintliff+Dr+houston,+TX&sll=37.0625,-95.677071&sspn=29.301969,59.765625&ie=UTF8&t=h&om=1&ll=29.718918,-95.510231&spn=0.001957,0.003648&z=18&iwloc=addr

This is my first time in Texas. Is there any awsome places I need to check out while I'm down there? I, of course, don't really know the area.

Thanks.

Don't pass coming down here to San Antonio, TX, about 6 hours away from Dallas (about 275 miles SSW). You'll find a lot of things to do here such as visiting Sea World, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the Alamo and other missons, Brackenridge Park, plenty of nice people, culture, and good food, especially Mexican food. ;)

I almost forgot Six Flags ;.; but that's like a 2 hour drive North of Dallas...

San Antonio is always a good place to go. the last time i went my family and i were on vacation to Fiesta Texas on the 4th of July. it was so freaking hot. me and my cuz left after 2 hours. and all that time was spent in line for the superman ride.
