Chuck Norris Designated Texas Ranger
Chuck Norris Doesn't Play a Texas Ranger; He Is a Texas Ranger
Gov. Rick Perry designated Norris and his brother, stunt coordinator and producer Aaron Norris, honorary Texas Rangers.

And that and a $1.79 will get you a cup of the Coffee of the Day at Starbucks.

I think they know it's just an honorary thing.
Best wishes to the old man.

Sir-Chuck's gonna need an honorary Texas Ranger Bowie, as well...
On edit, I'd like to throw in that it seems a tad incongruous for a man who got his ass whipped by a Chinese dancer to recieve an award from the Texas Rangers.

No $1.79 needed. Chuck Norris grinds his coffee with his teeth and boils the water with his own rage.
And in TX, doesn't Starbucks have five sizes, instead of the usual four? Short, Tall, Grande, Venti, and Chuck Norris?

The Texas Rangers don't make Chuck Norris an honorary Texas Ranger. Chuck Norris makes the Texas Rangers honorary Chuck Norrises.

I have one that I bought back in '86 or so (blued not chrome). It has been an excellent handgun.
