For those of you who are 1000s of miles away from home (or hometown), I figured maybe a little bit of joking around would bring back some good memories. I'm from Texas, so here is a joke list about Texas for all yall who originated in the Lonestar State! Please feel free to post your own as I know humor can ease the sharp edge of the occasional homesickness!
