If Texas Secedes, How Will They Brand It?

What’s up with TEXAS??? What will they call it, if it wanders away from the rest of the United States?
Texasistan? Texasopia? Texicle? Texaseria? Texasland? Texasorra? Texulencia? Texasuda? Texivia?

Texico?

Just wondering. Names are important; they can go very, very wrong. If the people who are contemplating secession are serious, they ought to have someone shopping around right now for a company that develops brand names and branding strategies. Texans should be familiar branding, right? Some of them, anyway?
OK, so here’s an online site for developing/selecting names. If you’re a Texan, you might want to start looking for a name now. Don’t wait until it’s too late and some knucklehead selects one that will make all the other nations giggle.

[Note: If you ARE from Texas, please don't be angry with me. I don't want you to leave!]

blogbeams coming soon to this site – via SplashCast

Just did my first SplashCast and will be adding my blogbeams channel here, soon.

In the meantime, more about the Nortons: Big bad Norton360 gave me agita today, when he flashed his red ENGINE ERROR warning each time I went to a website. Then he rejected Yahoo Mail, for certificate fraud. Seriously? Yahoo Mail?

I went to Help and I went to Support. Searches yielded nothing useful. So, I tried the tried and true. I shut the damn thing off. The computer, that is. Not Norton. Then I had some Reeses peanut butter cups, turned it back on. Everything was fine. Totally nuts.

Let’s hope it doesn’t happen again. This will be my final techrant. If you want more, go to techblogtalk. See the blogroll.

My next post will cover an eventful trip to Borders, and how I shaved another few days off my lifespan, because of it.
