I heard this summer something like public schools students in Texas would begin saying a pledge to Texas in addition to the United States of America. Am I mistaken?

Very true. We've been doing it every day in the public schools: pledge to the American flag, pledge to the Texas flag, then a moment of silence. It's quite nice, really. I like doing it.

Honor the Texas flag
I pledge allegiance to thee
Texas, one and indivisible.

Sadly, I was the only one who actually knew it by heart the first time we did it. Oh well.

Oh god, making our children even more mindless drones...

Organized chanting is so last milennium ;)
