"How it goes" would be expected from an American resident; "How goes it" from a Dutch resident, as it is word-by-word translation.
I managed to piss off less people last year than the previous one, so that's a win

In TX it's
"How's it going?", reply: "Going." .... implies OK
"How ya doing?", reply: "Doing." ... implies OK

Thank you, sir. Appreciate the compliment. Good Tex-Mex too.
You don't have to die to visit.
Except in middle of summer.
Then it is hot as hell.

BBQ place near you. Not sure of quality, but hard to beat TX BBQ
Beef & Meat – Grill & BBQ Ranch Werl[^]
utility bill in winter last month was $130 close to max
Peak utility bill in summer is $300+
So yes, less money for heating.

In TX, we pay about ~$3.00 USD a gallon (a little under national average)
or $.85 USD per liter compared to $2.12 USD per liter in Netherlands.
So yes, you pay more to travel by auto.
If I did the math right

And I persuaded her to try it (she really hates new things) by installing a jigsaw app - because she likes doing jigsaws, but cats and puzzles don't work too well ...
She's now on her fourth: she physically broke the first one, bricked the second, and has a Nokia as a backup in case her Samsung fails.
She doesn't do much with it: jigsaws and news is about it, but it's a start.
Except ... the cat has discovered the electronic jigsaws, and has started turning her tablet on, sitting on it and jiggling the pieces around with his butt.
