Most people say the ride isn't long enough.

I'd be a fool to say 'No, we weren't happy' to beat somebody we've lost to seven straight times since I've been here.

Funny, but in India it's either dusty or muddy, no in-between.

We expect tomorrow's mission to be a flawless conclusion to a program that has supported the nation for pretty much half a century.

He was real friendly. When they got (Brewer) in the cuffs, (Causey) said, 'Can I get my money (for the room) back?' He said, 'Can I get a refund?

I think the reason people continue to come is because we offer an old-fashioned environment. We have the old mugs that we still fill with root beer and it makes people think about the '50s.

I said, 'Can I get you some fresh towels? He had some story about his car being towed and how it was going to cost him 60 dollars to tow it around the corner.

Playing these kind of games, these young boys are going to do nothing but get better, and that just tickles the pee out of me.

Part of each of our organizational missions is to ensure the success of nonprofits, and we believe we can do more together than separately.

We have our highs and our lows out there. You saw it tonight. In the first half, we ran up and down the floor, but we have to rebound. We had one girl do that for us tonight. We have to continue to be consistent.

We were very fortunate to get that run, but I thought we wasted a big scoring opportunity later. It just all balances out. We were one better tonight.

We had hoped to get more done, but there were so many obstacles.

Some people have left because the facility has become outdated. And so people have left to find other places. And there are some of us who believe strongly in the Y who have stayed -- I'm one of those people. I'm looking forward to what they're going to do next.

This is his home town. Anytime he's done anything in New York, the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive. New Yorkers are cool about this kind of thing.

Although we had drilled the site for environmental investigation pretty extensively, you can't drill every inch of it. Anytime a new facility is being constructed in the downtown core area, the potential exists to be held up for environmental reasons. It's so hard to make that time up.

It's a very, very tough environment and very dirty.

Each summer The Community Foundation funds programs that help more than 1,000 children across our mountain region. Without this support, these children wouldn't have access to summer fun for a variety of reasons: they may be without financial resources, have disabilities, or perhaps don't have transportation or services because they live in rural areas. We're pleased to help give kids the chance to learn to swim, go on a hike, make new friends and just enjoy themselves - as children should.

In a matter of weeks, we could get a barge and a ramp in place and be ready to go.

In this job, I think we got away lucky with a relatively short delay and a pretty modest price.

I just like the idea of people adopting them and turning them into really nice pets. They've had kind of a hard life, and they still love people.

Chad has got to get ahead more (in the count). Chad's going to win a lot of games for us.

Get here early. I got here around 10 a.m. and filled a couple bags with clothes. But unfortunately much of the good furniture was already gone.
