Three Texas surgeons were playing golf together and began bragging about difficult surgeries they had performed.
One of them said, "I'm the best surgeon in Texas. A concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident. I reattached them, and 8 months later he performed a private concert for the Queen of England."
One of the others said "That's nothing. A young man lost both legs and one of his arms in an accident. I reattached them, and 2 years later he won a gold medal in field events in the Olympics."
The third surgeon said, "You guys are amateurs. Several years ago a cowboy who was high on cocaine and alcohol rode his horse head-on into a train traveling 80 miles an hour. All I had left to work with was the horse's ass and a cowboy hat. Now he's president of the United States."

Tragic isn't it! Sad part is that *I* am a Native Texan and have to try to live this down!

I lived my first two years of life as a Texan. In fact, the surgeon who performed life-saving operation on me was reportedly a "Texan with huge hands". We're not all ding-bats.
