Monroe Quotations

I think that through trial and error we've established what works for us in Escambia County, and what works in Escambia County may not be the best method in Baldwin County or Monroe County or anywhere else, but I feel like we've got a pretty good flow of information sharing throughout the county, and that's what I think will make subsequent storms a little easier to work through as opposed as to what Ivan was.

I think that they reached the point where something had to happen to Burlington Coat. (CEO) Monroe Milstein was not active for quite sometime, and I think it was mostly his sons running the company.

I've always had a thing for old movies, old Hollywood. I've always just loved watching Marilyn Monroe and Greta Garbo. In all of those old movies from the '40s and '50s, women put themselves together so well, with a little bit of drama and elegance. That was fascinating to me growing up.

My dad treated Marilyn Monroe more like his daughter than me.

Ellie's an amazing athlete and an outstanding individual. The kids look to her because she's got that state experience in other sports. She's been an amazing kid at Monroe and it's tough to see her leave.

We beat them pretty handily earlier this year (39-13), but we did that three years ago, too, and they beat us that year. We never take them lightly. Monroe believes that under the right circumstances, they can get us.

The Farm Bureau is very much opposed to that. We're concerned because they just consolidated the Belmont and Monroe county offices about 10 years ago.
