One of the cooler memories I have of my time in Virginia is for a time, my nightly drive home took me past Newport News Shipbuilding. You could see down into the dry docks fairly well from Huntington Ave. I was able to see them building the USS Ronald Reagan (http://www.reagan.navy.mil/)from the keel up that way.

Texas can keep the motto "Don't Mess with Texas". I prefer, for us anyways, "Don't F**k with Mississippi".
