If Goodhair dares to call another special session,
it's time for the world premiere of "Attack of the Killer D's 2", starring Wendy Davis.
Remember the Killer D's? They decided the only way to stop Tom DeLay's gerrymandering plan was to bust quorum. And since the Texas Rangers (the state police, not the baseball team 
) have the power to haul their asses to Austin from anywhere in Texas, they had to leave the state. They holed up in a motel in Ardmore, Okla. for over a week.
For extra drama this time, they could head in the other direction, to Mexico (which isn't that much farther from Austin, if at all) and claim political asylum.

He must have inhaled too much bug spray, like Dale on King of the Hill. 
Speaking of which, you know Peggy Hill would have been in there, while Hank and the boys fretted and fumed outside. The twist would be that they'd be the ones who got arrested, for drinking their Alamo beers on the Capitol grounds.
maybe Boomhower as DeLay.
Before he was revealed as a bottom-feeding sleazeball , John Edwards used to say that he always tried (figuratively speaking) to get Hank Hill's vote.
the Killer Ds ran to Oklahoma.
And I remember the Killer Bees too & how the authorities ran around like chickens without heads, tearing up the state, looking for them.
they could always hole up in the Ecuadorean embassy!
they would not go to Mexico. They chose Ardmore because they could get there quickly & had a hospital where one of the representatives under medical care could receive treatment (IIRC it was Lucio, who was the only one put on a plane). The rest of them snuck away one by one during a break, got on a bus chartered by Raymond & paid for on his credit card, & were headed off north on I 35 before anyone else knew they were gone.
True story: The reps had been up all night because the republicans figured they were going to do something, so they never moved to adjourn the proceedings. Finally, at some point during the day, a recess was called & that's when they scampered for the bus. Raymond told us that as he was finally nodding off on the bus, the driver popped in a video for them to watch. It was, I kid you not, "Catch Me If You Can." 
I don't remember how they had the bus standing at the ready for such a long time, but things were so secretive, the driver didn't know who he was driving or where they were going until the doors closed.
I looked it up. And the medical care would be a lot cheaper.
Great story!
