Hey, Ken. Wouldn't this be great? It's a little hard to read, but that's
the way I got it.

<<<
<<< < JUST A FUNNY LITTLE EMAIL I THOUGHT I WOULD
PASS ON TO
<<< < YOU...(hope it gives you a laugh)<
<<< <
<<< < How to settle the 2000 Presidential Election:
<<< <
<<< < Ok, Folks. I've given the people in Florida
plenty of
<<< < time to get this election finished. Now It is
my
<<< < turn:
<<< <
<<< < #1: Al Gore becomes President of the United
States
<<< < (all 49 states).
<<< <
<<< < #2: George W. Bush becomes the President of
the
<<< < Republic of Texas. Gore shouldn't mind as he
said we
<<< < were the worst state in the union during the
campaign.
<<< <
<<< <
<<< < So what does Texas have to survive as a
Republic?
<<< <
<<< < --NASA in Houston, Texas (we will control the
space
<<< < industry).
<<< < --We refine over 85% of the gasoline in the
United
<<< < States (that is why Houston has problems with
the air
<<< < quality).
<<< < --Defense Industry (we have over 65% of it).
The term
<<< < "Don't mess with Texas", will take on new
meaning.
<<< < --Oil - we can supply all the oil the Republic
of
<<< < Texas will need for the next 300 years.
<<< < --Natural Gas-Again we have all we need (too
bad about
<<< < those northern states). Al Gore will figure a
way to
<<< < keep Tipper and you warm....
<<< < --Computer Industry-we currently lead the
nation in
<<< < producing computer chips. A small place named
Texas
<<< < Industries, Dell Computer, EDS, etc., etc.
<<< < --Health Centers-We have the largest research
centers
<<< < for Cancer research, the best burn centers,
and other
<<< < large health planning centers.
<<< < --We have enough colleges to keep us going:
Texas A&M,
<<< < UT, Rice, University of Houston, SMU, Baylor,
UNT,
<<< < Texas Women's University, etc.
<<< < --We have a ready supply of workers (just open
the
<<< < border when we need some more) and our friends
across
<<< < the border will pour in by the thousands.
<<< < --We have control of the paper industry,
plastics,
<<< < insurance, etc.
<<< <
<<< < This just names a few of the items that will
keep the
<<< < Republic of Texas afloat.
<<< <
<<< < Now to the rest of the United States under
President
<<< < Gore:
<<< <
<<< < --Since you won't have the refineries to get
gas for
<<< < your cars, only President Gore will be able to
drive
<<< < around in his SUV which gets him about 9 miles
per
<<< < gallon. The rest of the United States will
have to
<<< < walk or ride bikes.
<<< < --You won't have any TV as the space center in
Houston
<<< < will cut off your communications.
<<< < --You won't have any natural gas to heat your
homes
<<< < but since Al's promised global warming, I'm
sure you
<<< < won't get cold!
<<< < --You won't need our computer chips since you
won't
<<< < have electricity to power the computers.
<<< <
<<< < So don't worry about us down here in Texas.
We will
<<< < be OK!
