welcome to paris, texas[/font]
THE CANONS. THE SECRETS. THE FACE CLAIM. THE ADVERTISING.
it's to a town where everyone knows who you are and what you're up to, it's pretty damn hard to
get into this town and the minute they've made themselves a parasite on your skin, there's no
going back. the people born here are either eager to bolt or to live the american dream with the
kids running' in the same circles as they did when they were their age. then there's the people
who jumped the gun and raced off before their chute was open and felt the lights of home tugging
them back for reasons that are pretty well known around here. and for some reason the town shuns
the newcomers, even if most of the time, they're the best damn dose of reality that the town has.
it doesn't take you long to react to the town though, even if there's a small silent rule that
anyone to come to paris has to reside here for at least five years before becoming an actual local.
of course, there are the dreamers too, who would enjoy hitchhiking their way clean of this town,
but it does say without going, you'll try anything once in this town. big or small, you'll end up
loving it here, and most of the time, that's a fact. that's just the thing about a small town like
paris, where you're famous if you crash your truck, or rebound from college, the running joke is
that no one can compare to each other, but everyone can say that they can't speak french.
