"Do you guys still have the shootout duels in the middle of the street like in the Old West?" "Do you guys still have to hunt for your food with a shotgun?" And my personal favorite, "Do you guys hold hands and sing songs from the Wizard of Oz?"
All that stuff is not true, well except the shootouts in the street, but those are a little bit more intense then the ones in the Old West. We go to normal schools like you guys. We drive cars, some named after horses, but we don't ride on horses. Kansas City is in eastern Kansas/western Missouri, and all those tornados and flat pancake lands are in western Kansas. We buy are food, so no hunting. As far as the Wizard of Oz goes, people out here are sick of hearing about it all the time!
