Hmmm ... five hours southwest of Dallas sounds pretty close to San 
Antonio. I grew up in San Antonio, went to Keystone School from 5th -
 12th grade and taught myself to cube in my freshman year.

This was way back in 1980/1981, back when you solved Layer-By-Layer, 
turned with your whole hand, and didn't lube up the cubes.

Back in the olden days, when there wasn't an Internet, you couldn't 
Google "rubik's cube solution" or visit speedsolving bulletin 
boards, and there were only a couple cube books in the bookstore and 
you were lucky to find them after checking all the bookstores in 
town (when your parents would drive you there).

Back in the olden days, when if you broke a minute with a lucky 
solve you were ecstatic. Rubik's Cube contests were "1 run, no pre-
inspection, everyone goes at once, drag race" competitions and the 
winners had times like 68 seconds.

Back in the olden days, when "That's Incredible" would show people 
who could solve in 30 or 40 (or even 22.85) seconds and you'd 
say "Oh My God! How, How, HOW did they do that?!?!?"

You young whippersnappers have it easy :-)
