I'd go just to see that Bill Crider fella, if it wasn't 1116 miles (1796 km) (970 nautical miles).
Maybe I'm not being fair, but when I think of Houston I think, "Oh, I better bring a gun."
It's not required.
Given the venue, Bill, Break the Silence!
Though probably not with a gun...the cold, dead right of ev'ry Murrican.
