How Bosnia is like Texas

1. It's hotter than hell.
2. People there in small towns sit on their porches and wave at passing trains.
3. Those bitches can drink.
3. They'll give you the shirts off their backs, lead you in the right direction, and share their moonshine with you, even if you don't speak their language.
4. The people aren't at all what you'd expect if you pay attention to media images of them.
5. Red dirt, rocky hills.
6. The people ain't in no hurry to get nowheres.
7. They're resilient, independent minded, will and have defended their land and way of life to the end.
8. They seriously question the wisdom of the U.N.
