In honor of Australian kangaroos and everything Texas...

A Texan farmer goes to Australia for a vacation. There he meets an
Aussie farmer and gets talking. The Aussie shows off his big wheat
field and the Texan says, "Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least
twice as large."

Then they walk around the ranch a little, and the Aussie shows off his
herd of cattle. The Texan immediately says, "We have longhorns that
are at least twice as large as your cows."

The conversation has, meanwhile, almost died when the Texan sees a
herd of kangaroos hopping through the field in the distance. Amazed,
he asks, "What the hell are those?!"

The Aussie replies with an incredulous look, "Don't you have any
grasshoppers in Texas?"

Reminds me of the joke about the Texan playing golf in Toronto:

The Texan spots Ontario Place and asks what's that? His golf partners
explain that it's a water front recreation center, with water rides,
paddle boats,  dining, an IMAX theatre, boat shows, live events, etc.
The Texan asks how long it took to build that? The group says three or
four years in total. The Texan says "Hell Boy, we woulda built that in
three months in Texas".

So they play golf a liitle longer and the Texan spots the CN tower and
asks what's that? His golf partners explain that it's (past tense) the
worlds tallest free standing communication tower, with a revolving
restraunt, observation decks, a night club, etc. The Texan again asks,
how long long did it take to build that? His golf partners
respond, "Don't know, it wasn't there yesterday!"

There once was a blind man who decided to visit Texas...
When he arrived on the plane, he felt the seats and said, "Wow, these
seats are big!"
The person next to him answered, "Everything is big in Texas."
When he finally arrived in Texas, he decided to visit a bar.
Upon arriving in the bar, he ordered a beer and got a mug
placed between his hands. He exclaimed, "Wow these mugs are big!"
The bartender replied, "Everything is big in Texas."
After a couple of beers, the blind man asked the bartender where the
bathroom was located.
The bartender replied, "Second door to the right."
The blind man headed for the bathroom, but accidentally tripped over
and skipped the second door. Instead, he entered the third door,
which lead to the swimming pool and fell into the pool by accident.
Scared to death, the blind man started shouting, "Don't flush, don't
flush!"
