The state fish (Texas Squid) is known to exist some say number in the hundreds of thousands though one has not been spotted in years. They live near oil rigs which is a natural safe habitat for the animal which produces ink for quick getaways.

What is the odds of getting dealt a pocket pair in Texas Hold'em?
It is 1 in 17. Here's why:
There are 52 cards in a deck, 13 different value cards (A, 2, 3, etc.), and two cards are dealt. We're finding the odds of getting any pocket pair, not just one. This means that the first card dealt can be any value. The second card has to repeat the value of the first card. For example, the first card dealt is a 10, and now the second card has to be a 10. After the first 10 is dealt, there are 51 cards left in the deck, and 3 different 10's. Therefore, 3 over 51 simplifies to 1 over 17.

Can a convicted felon bow hunt in Texas?
It is a federal offense for a convicted felon to own or POSSESS firearms anywhere, under ANY circumstances. (USC, Title 18) Being "around" or hunting "with" persons carrying firearms puts him in "constructive" possession of a firearm. Ask yourself, 'Would a "reasonable" person believe that someone went out in the field hunting with others even though he had no weapon?' I doubt it. I wouldn't risk it.
