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.

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.
There's a lot of good things going on. For the last year, people have found out more and more about it, including myself. Once they get it, they like it.

You could try to live monogamously. Good luck.
Gatewood Galbraith was a good friend, and a tireless advocate for the repeal of the ridiculous ban on hemp & marijuana. His book ‘The Last Free Man Standing’ says it all.
...when you put your life in a good place, good things follow.
The winds of change are always blowingAnd every time I try to stayThe winds of change continue blowingAnd they just carry me away.
The song's been in the closet for 20 years. The timing's right for it to come out.
