• There are a lot of barbecue sauces. But I've been using Head Country barbecue sauce for 20 to 25 years, which is manufactured in Ponca City, Oklahoma. It's just awesome and has tremendous flavor. Many professional cooks use it and it can be found at Kroger and Walmart stores around the country. I use the Original, which has a white label and is a classic. But there's also a hickory flavor, called Hickory Smoke and one that has a little heat.

• Twenty years ago the Oklahoma City bombing seared the concept of terrorism on American soil into our national consciousness and proved that we are all vulnerable, even in the heartland. I was in college at Rice University in 1995. All of us remember exactly where we were that day, and we will never forget the 168 people who were killed. Terrorism is evil, yet the incredible response to tragedies like we experienced in Oklahoma 20 years ago serve to highlight the strength, resolve, and resiliency of the American people to the world.

• Oí por primera vez el término "metanovela" en una conferencia de escritores en Tulsa, Oklahoma. La idea es que, aunque cada libro de una serie es independiente, cuando se leen en conjunto forman una gran novela sobre el personaje principal. Cada libro representa su propio arco: en el primero de la serie conocemos al personaje y establecemos un metaobjetivo que le llevará a lo largo de los libros siguientes; en el segundo, ese metaobjetivo se pone a prueba; en el tercero... ya nos hacemos una idea.

• El bourbon es la única bebida. Puedes coger todo ese champán y tirarlo por el Canal de la Mancha. ¿Por qué esperar 80 años para poder beberlo?

Dijeron que el tratado sólo se refería a 'Agua y Hierba; no dice nada del petróleo'.

And you learn what to do if one is coming your way. And then you cross your fingers and make the best judgments you can.
