Dan Green Quotations

Columbus taught us to ignore the humanity of a certain group of people.

What we do not get are the names of those people peering out from those lush, green trees.

We were up to our eyeballs in competition, ... They actually improved over the last time they ran and I was really pleased with that. The kids competed a lot better. They got out and got after it. Had they been a hundred percent physically we would have seen a much better result.

No one likes to come home to a dark house or worry about security while away. With our technology homebuyers can opt to turn on lights when using a remote control to open garage doors or be called on their cell phone if an alarm or water sensor is tripped. A working parent also could confirm a child's arrival home from school by monitoring the security code access, and if security cameras are part of the program images and/or video could be viewed over the web. Many automated features save energy, helping the system pay for itself over time. Others improve safety, like fire, carbon monoxide and low temperature sensors.

That doesn't mean we will exclude other candidates that may live and work in the district. I'd just as soon have a local candidate.

It's tough. But we won't have anyone to run it. What can you do? That's nature. It's a shame.

You want to take it seriously, ... You don't want to do anything to put anyone in harm's way. But you also don't want to wake up and see the storm went another way and have no meet.

We've found this year at The Woodlands that we might not need to put as much emphasis on individual meets leading up to district, regionals and state. The heat here can really take a lot out of runners, so we're sort of easing off in the early going of training and working on some fundamentals.

The roads just break apart through the years. It was around 18 years ago Country Road was paved. The life span for a road is 10 years, so we are past due.

It seems to be a situation where money talks big. Especially with the security issues we have after 9/11, I don't understand why this was done. On the face, it doesn't look like a very good idea.
