|
WHEREAS, Inasmuch as the great, sovereign State of Texas has |
|
|
been unquestionably blessed by its Creator; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Proof of such blessings lies in the unquestionable |
|
|
fact that, when created, Texas received, along with all the other |
|
|
blessings given to the Earth, taller, billowing prairie grasses; |
|
|
gentler, winding, clear rivers; bluer skies; redder sunsets; faster |
|
|
horses; more unique animals; the most beautiful wildflowers, each |
|
|
honored with its very own season and the most beautiful of which is |
|
|
the bluebonnet, which is found only within the boundaries of Texas; |
|
|
fatter deer; oranger longhorns; more beautiful women; smarter |
|
|
children; and kinder men; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Instilled within those blessed to reside within the |
|
|
borders of the state is a fierce pride, which provides assurance |
|
|
that this portion of Earth will flourish and not perish and that its |
|
|
inhabitants will band together and fight, if need be, to the death |
|
|
to preserve the blessing of the land and its contents; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, When this Earth was set forth, it was set perfectly |
|
|
and with its own distinct boundaries; those boundaries include the |
|
|
Northern Pole of the Earth and the opposite, Southern Pole of the |
|
|
Earth; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, It therefore stands to reason that a West Pole of the |
|
|
Earth would be understood to exist, and that it would be designed to |
|
|
be placed in the blessed and beloved Texas territory; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The location of the West Pole has been searched for, |
|
|
researched, and found to be located at 30 degrees, 18.25' north |
|
|
latitude and 97 degrees, 56.28' west longitude, in Bee Cave, Texas; |
|
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 80th Texas |
|
|
Legislature recognize the presumed site of the West Pole as being in |
|
|
the sovereign State of Texas and acknowledge and accept it as |
|
|
justifiable and deserved, to add to the greatness of Texas. |
