Texas which of course we Texans *think* is the entire hemisphere.  :-)
We have a bad rap as thinking we have the best of everything... when in

belonging to a place and a people.  

Anyhoo, if you rotate the "d" 180 degrees along its vertical axis you can
see that "dung in the oven" would not make for a great dinner!
