The Texas Delegation

Being endorsed by the state of Texas is not all fun Lyle Lovett related benefits, there are some duties. One of the main tasks The Kid must handle, is meeting with the occasional delegation from Texas, so that he can stay in touch with issues effecting Texans. Recently, he had a visit from official Texas baby, Baby B. Baby B was accompanied by his talented staff of Nana and The Snorter. Not to be out done, The Kid had his normal staff of T-Bear and Monkey. While T-Bear and Monkey are generally excellent staff, they are however a little out of there depth when it comes to the intricate protocol required to host an official Texas delegation. For this reason, The Kid brought in the expert, Gigi. Gigi did an excellent job of making sure there were no faux paux. Although, as far as T-Bear and Monkey could determine, the intricate protocol for an official Texas visit seems to involve lots and lots of dessert making. Well, there was some sort of hullabulu about pants being to short, but otherwise it seemed to be mostly dessert.
