I had to check it out. When I saw Nimrod on my Texas map I had to go check out the town. As it turned out, the town consisted of a church with the cemetary located next to it.

I saw the sign for Nimrod on Hwy 36 near Rising Star

maybe the two cities are named for twins separated at birth...

Yep, just up the road. I was out that way in April 2009 on my RoadStar 1700. Spent a week riding what I call Central Texas. That particular day I started out by Lake Whitney. It was chilly with a little rain and when I got near Gorman, I was bucking 50 mph winds and a lot of dust. Gotta love it!
 
interesting (or maybe not)

Nimrod was traditionally known as a great Hunter in the Bible, until Bugs Bunny made fun of Elmer Fudd by calling him "nimrod"...

we forget the Bible and remember the cartoons (well, i do anyway):rofl:
