I'm not a musician in any way other than listening. I've often wondered why professional musicians, who practice the songs over and over in rehearsals, THEN have the sheet music right in front of them in case they can't remember what they did in rehearsal, THEN have to have a conductor in front of them. And none of them are even looking at the conductor, they're all looking at their sheet music.
And how come only classical music 'needs' a conductor? Jazz, rock, country, pop, folk, ska... big bands, small bands... none of them has a conductor. Normally a drummer just gets the beat started with a "one-and-a-two-and-a" so that the band starts together and then they continue from there.
Conductors aren't needed.

She got a mansion. He got a crappy book of bad sketches. Poor John.

No, Texas is too much of a threat, so it would be a high-priority target for other states. After the strongest states have weakened or destroyed each other, the weakest states, which had been ignored, would then be free to clean up.
Assuming no alliances were formed, which is a big assumption, the final survivors would be Colorado, Alaska, and Pennsylvania but not for reasons you might think.
Colorado, stuck in the middle, would be mostly wiped out early on from all sides, except for a handful individualist mountain-folk survivalists hiding in the mountains.
Alaska, too far and too underpopulated to have been considered by any other state, will have pockets of survivors scattered all over.
Pennsylvania, like Colorado, will have been wiped out early on...except for a couple of Amish farms, whose inhabitants:
1) Weren't aware of any kind of war;
2) Quickly dominate the area, since they've been living in a post-apocalyptic setting for 200 years and are used to it.

Which side do I take? Whichever one DIDN'T post what was meant to be a private, family matter on the very public internet.

What a great way to get rid of that gamey taste: let the squirrel gorge on giant Snickers bars first. Genius!

It'll work. I saw Macgyver do something similar using a trash bag and a bean burrito.

Solution: Make a really big perimeter the cat can't escape. Then start making smaller perimeters inside that one.

Also, no women anywhere near me. What a surprise.
