I had Fort Worth, Shreveport and Lubbock.
Born in Fort Worth, lived in east Texas (Tyler, not too far from Shreveport) until I was 13, then back to Fort Worth/Dallas until I was 30.
No connection to Lubbock whatsoever, but I guess it had to give a 3rd option.
So, yeah, a pretty accurate representation.
**Side note- anyone else completely disturbed by "The devil is beating his wife?" Seriously? Who comes up with these things and then who repeats it enough to become part of the regional vernacular?
