you know, I thought I'd reviewed every chapter of this, but when i re-read I realised i hadn't. and that made me stupid. I mean boy howdy, someone said to me:

Really, if brains was dynamite, I don’t think you’d have enough to blow your nose...

Heehee... great line and I can think of some people that pertains to, too...

Still love this and think it's one of the best things you ever did!

Very cute story, It's nice to see one of the other prisoners with a leading role, it gives depth to the camp. Thanks!So Crocker and Newkirk became friends too. Looks like the only one left to win over is LeBeau. Now about those Tamales... Maybe Crocker will win LeBeau over to some Texas cooking after all!

Yeehaw! This has really just flowed out of you, Becky, you should be thrilled with how it has turned out. Well done! (I'd try something Texan but I don't want Crocker picking on ME!)
Bravo!

Davy Crockett died in the Alamo so it would be impossible for him to be the king of texas, but hey, this is fiction. it makes a good story. good job so far.

*laughs* I should've known the resolution was going to be just as true to the show as everything else you've written.. it's so perfect. Personally, I woulda let Klink keep on thinkin' I was royalty... but that's just me. ;)

"Maybe they were stolen..."
Even though your story is definitely among the best, I think if you're from Texas you can derive a smidgen more pleasure from it than you could if you weren't...

I just loved Carter's "profound and important thoughts"-LOL! How on earth do you remember all those colloquialisms? You have me laughing out loud at reading this one purty story! ;-)

*cracks up*
Ok, this is so great. I mean, one of the best plots... King of Texas, huh?
*laughing* Sho' nuff, sho' nuff...
The Princess of Texas ;)

I love all the "Texanese". It adds so much life to your Texan, Crocker. It sounds like Carter has quite a night ahead of him. This pair seems to work together well. (cowboys and Indians)Love it! keep it coming.

All hail the Prince of Texas! heehee.. ;-) If funny were granite, why i'd say i was readin' mt. rushmore! heehee, ok, maybe that was a bit over the top, or... over the mountain as the case may be... lol.. but right mighty enjoyable! -m

you can't stop there! this is great, please continue. how will they get klink to give crocker a ride? how will they use crocker being texan to their advantage?

"but he became Texan when he fought at the Alamo." I LOVE that line. Why, I love that line like a billy goat loves a land fill; like a crawdad loves his crawson; like a snake loves a tube sock on a cold winter's night. heehee. Great story - hope Hogan survives his "overview" of Texas history! Yeehaw.

Overview of Texas history...
WOW! What a loaded question!

"Well, we’ve howdied, but we ain’t shook yet."
I don't know if the guys out in Alberta also talk like that, but I can tell Sgt. Crocker ain't from Ontario. Great expressions! They flow so well in the story too. [By the way, I've always had trouble reading topographical maps. Would Sgt. Croker be available for questions after the climax?]

Well son! I love the Texan collequalisms. What's scarier is that as a notherner...I understand what the heck Crocker's sayin'! ) (If any y'all ever glanced at my profile, you'll know why. LOL)
Great start! Can't wait to see where this one goes.
