The recently deceased state of Texas.






Texas dies in fiery car crash at 162

KENNEBUNK, ME -- The state of Texas was killed yesterday in a multi-car pileup along I-95 near Kennebunk, when his car plowed straight into a concrete overpass support and burst into flames after he attempted to swerve around an existing pileup. Paramedics tried unsuccessfully to revive the state, and he died at the scene. Texas was 162.

Longtime neighbor Oklahoma told The Teaspoon Times that Texas was a great state to have as a friend. "He was just your typical, old-fashioned, down-home, hootin' and hollerin', nitty-gritty, Tex Mex, greasy spoon, shoot-'em-up kind of state. He was a big guy, but he had a big heart," recalled Oklahoma.

Texas, who would have turned 163 in December, had endured his share of tough times. Even though the Mexican-American war ravaged many parts of the state in the 1840s, Texas met Louisiana soon after, and the couple settled down to a life together on the southern edge of the United States. Most recently, Hurricanes Katrina and Ike had caused some tension between them, but the two were just beginning to put those incidents behind them.

"There are just too many memories," said Louisiana, choking back tears. "I still have the yellow rose he gave me when we first met. And I remember...excuse me...I remember...the Alamo."

Texas is survived by his father, Mexico, his wife, Louisiana, as well as his three children, Austin, Dallas, and Amarillo, who all live nearby. An estranged son, Waco, had moved to San Diego in 1994 and could not be reached for comment.

Officials have warned anybody with plans to drive through the state of Texas that they will only find empty space devoid of all substance and matter in place of the familiar, painfully long stretches of large-state nothingness and small-town mentalities devoid of all substance and matter.
