Que Viva Tejas!

Battle Flag

I was talking to some people today who had no idea that today was the fall of the Alamo. These were Native Texans, mind you, and that freaked me out. It made me realize that, as much as we go on about it, we dun really remember the Alamo. Do you know how most of these assholes know to commemorate the Fall of the Alamo? Because the local news tells them so. But then again, to hell with them. Most of them are probably not even really from here. They came over after all that ugliness.
Either way, today the Alamo Fell. After Thirteen Days the 186 defenders were overwhelmed by superior Mexican Forces. Some say for Glory, others for Gold. Hell, the Nickelodeon Channel actuallu had a little black girl telling people it was all over Slavery.
I don't care. It doesn't matter why they did what they did. What matters is that they did it.
