Point Blank....15-20 minutes from me. Nice place, with a great icehouse I have enjoyed many a beer on a warm summer night. Point Blank is a very small rural town, with only a few hundred residents, but it is full of good folks.
If you liked that name.... here's another one for you. Less than 10 miles east of Conroe, on Hwy 105 is a small town named "Cut and Shoot".... Nice town, nice people, strange name. I heard the history behind the name once, but can't recall most of it.
Not all Texans are as conservative as most would think. We have a large percentage of liberal thinkers, and I am glad for it. Texas is a very diverse state, and it's sad so many stereotype us like they do.
