註釋Anybody can spot a Texan a mile off: the Stetson hat, massive belt buckle, snakeskin boots, pot belly, loud drawl, and the pickup truck with a rifle rack and a case of Lone Star in the back. And, of course, a million or two in the bank, topped off regularly by royalties from oil. That's the image--but is it really so? Stephen Brook drove around Texas and found the stereotype confirmed. But he found much more: Texas has a conspicuous culture of its own. Some people love it, others hate it, but it's unquestionably alive and kicking.
