I think it's true, we have to watch what we're doing. I think if we start out to make what we're trying to do work locally, using local farmers, local people, local control, not going outside and importing a lot of things - everything we need, grow it in the area and be self-sustaining - I think we can probably keep that from happening to a certain degree.
We may have been poor, but my sister, Bobbie, and I were taught to hold our heads up high. Whether you're young or old, when you meet someone, you look 'em in the eye and speak up so you can be heard. When you look a person in the eye, you're not trying to hide who you are, plus you get a pretty good idea of who they are.
We're still here trying to get the word out that 330 farmers are quitting every week.
You could try to live monogamously. Good luck.
I think it's time we start looking seriously at alternative energies so we don't have to go around the world looking for oil,
I think this is a great thing that's happening. It's good for the country, it's good for Oklahoma, it's good for all of us.
Kinky will get the politicians out of politics, but we need your help to get him on the ballot. Kinky has only a few weeks to collect over 45,000 signatures, and I'll be one of those signatures, and I hope you will, too.

I like to stick with music I know I can play. I love classical, but I don't think I could ever play it. I'm just not qualified.
When you're singing, you're using extra muscles, and it requires a lot of exercise and breathing. You can't do that if you're a sissy. If I have any fitness advice for people, I'd tell them to sing more. It's good therapy, too.
When I see someone I think is cool, he's a pretty well-adjusted individual. He's not too affected one way or the other by what's happening, no matter what's going through his mind.
I think most people realize that our problems are our government, not me and you individually, except that we can - must have some sort of responsibility, because they're in there and they were elected, so we have to defend ourselves on those lines.
All my kids were raised on computers: They were home-schooled on the Internet, so they're pretty good at that stuff. And I'm proud of them, but I don't really keep up with it.
