Have you ever heard of a town called Corpus Christi?
Yeah, of course I've heard of Farrah. I went to the same High School she did. W.B. Ray
I was just curious as to how many people outside of Texas had heard of it.
I knew my fellow Texan would know though.
I was born and raised there. I have a picture of it on my 360 page, if you want to look.

History of Corpus Christi
In 1519, on the Roman Catholic Feast Day of Corpus Christi, Spanish explorer Alonzo Alvarez de Pineda discovered a lush semi-tropical bay on what is now the southern coast of Texas. The bay, and the city that later sprung up there, took the name of the feast day celebrating the "Body of Christ."
Corpus Christi began as a frontier trading post, founded in 1838-39 by Colonel Henry Lawrence Kinney, an adventurer, impresario and colonizer. The small settlement was called Kinney's Trading Post, or Kinney's Ranch.
It is a beautiful, gulf coast city, with beaches and water sports.
