Tex, this is for you

(friend of mine at church who was raised in TX, lifelong Cowboys fan.. )

from FoxNews..

Dear Allen,
Too Bad You're a Cowboys Fan. I'm Rebelling.
Gnomey


MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) Allen Snyder's garden gnome is still missing, but not forgotten.

The 14-inch tall red and white statue disappeared in the spring from Snyder's yard in Morgantown, West Virginia. Snyder has since received three letters from the gnome.

Gnomey has written home to tell his friend that he's been broadening his travels.

The latest letter, which Snyder received this week, included photos of the gnome in the company of Pittsburgh Steelers fans. Apparently Gnomey attended Pittsburgh's football home opener.

Snyder has no idea who's pulling this prank, but says his short list of suspects includes several gag-loving friends.

The story has even caught the attention of officials at Texas-based online travel agency Travelocity, which uses a roaming gnome in its advertising. Travelocity sent Snyder another gnome to keep him company until his returns home.

hey, at least he's not Flat Stanley.
