A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Texas has Austin, Dallas, and oil. All three are things we'd like to keep; the first two are mainly dragged down by the rest of the state, and the rest of the US still needs the last, for now.
