My mom grew up in Kansas, my dad in Indiana. They had boring childhoods.

Kansas is great - and great for America, when, more and more, we honor every human life everywhere.

Kansas is very religious, very Republican, and very straight-laced. I needed to get away from that.

I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.

I have a long history with Kansas City.

We have a strong agricultural heritage in Kansas.

My family was a Christian family. But I had to get to Kansas to play the blues.

I've lived in Kansas for more than thirty years, and for half of those, I was part of a ranching family, so I'm writing about things I know and love.

My mom's side of the family is from Arkansas!

It isn't necessary to have relatives in Kansas City in order to be unhappy.
