It is the county seat of Angelina County, and is situated in East Texas. The town is named for Abraham P. Lufkin, a cotton merchant and Galveston, Texas city councilman.

Claude the hypnotist exclaimed: 'I'm here to put you into a trance; I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience.' The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat 'I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations.' He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, 'Watch the watch, watch the watch, and watch the watch...' The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface.. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch, until, suddenly, it slipped from the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking… [cont.] Asked by sheephead_28 - Tue Oct 6 23:37:16 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Have a star, that's the 1st time I've heard that one. FUNEEE!!! Answered by yorkie luver - Wed Oct 7 01:16:42 2009 How do I go about buying a brand new trailer home (not rv, or mobile)? Q. I live in Lufkin, Texas, and I am saving up to buy a new trailer home but I'm unsure how much they cost or where I would get one. Also, If I find a place to get one, do they deliver? And where would I put it? Would I also have to buy property to put it on, if I didn't want to live in a trailer park? I have all these questions, any help would be so very appreciative. Thank you!

Prices vary between them and square footage on double on up and length of single wides. Roughly singles can go for 15-20k double 30-40k triple 41-50k and mods 51-65k$$$. If you buy property you'll have to pay to install electric,sewer,phone,cabl e water/well ect... Amenities. That's gonna be expensive as well around 35-55k estimated. The way to go is to buy property with all that on it all ready. And most places will deliver,level and install your trailer free with purchase price. IDE say google it with your zip to pull up dealers. Good luck:) Answered by Modern Warfare Kombatant - Wed Jan 6 04:36:39 2010 Country song i heard this morning?
