SINCE NO ONE GUESSED IT...

Remember how I held a little contest about the magazine I started subscribing to?

No one guessed it.

So Davis, Party of 3 wins it because she reminded me of it.

The prize? A subscription to said magazine. I mentioned it in a past post and the mention got picked up on by someone remotely related to my editor. He got me some gift subscriptions as prizes, mainly because....he was born in Texas.

That's right, folks. The correct answer?

TEXAS MONTHLY
.

Yes, I'm obsessed with Texas. I love that whole darn state. If you put a man in a pair of Wranglers and a Stetson, I dare say I wouldn't kick him outta bed for eatin' crackers. And for the past ten years or so, they've had a magazine for folks JUST LIKE ME.

The cover article? All about...COWBOYS. They just OOZE Americana to me. But its largely a photographic essay, so it's completely clean, Mom.

The movie that was passed around at the sorority house? DEBBIE DOES DALLAS. It was taped on the end of Rain Woman. Rain Woman was gross, but Debbie Does Dallas held off for a good 70 minutes before the "real" stuff got to happenin'. It IS just about the "Citizen Kane" of the porn business. It turned 30 this month.

Anyway, Carrie said "hey Molly, what was that magazine?" first. So the Davis Family gets a subscription. I promise, Carrie - I've never ever ever seen an article about porn other than this month. Every other month is completely clean - seriously, People and US Weekly are WAY more trashy than TM and it really IS good reading.

Carrie, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys...

Waylon Jennings, where have you gone?

WHOOO HOOO! I'm pumped. My sisters are actually native Texans - born in Dallas. I'm with you about a man with wranglers on. I guess I'll have not let my baby grow up to date Cowboys. (Though, I'll be jealous if she does)

Heck, I'd be proud to let my babies grow up to be cowboys, so I take that back, I just kept thinking of that song while I was writing that post.
