from TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES to TEXAS

This morning I woke up a few miles east of a town called Truth or Consequences, New Mexico...

And for those of old enough to recall the great stunt-oriented game show classic, here's the fabulous theme song...

Speaking of daytime TV themes - I spent most of my day today driving through the state of Texas - a state so big that NBC once decided to rip-off CBS's prime-time hit DALLAS, by spinning off a few characters from ANOTHER WORLD by moving them to the Lone Star state. Too bad they didn't move Bay City cop Larry Ewing and his bimbo wife Clarice to Texas, because then there'd be two Ewing families in the six flag state.
