I still remember my first Giacometti exhibition, and going back to the museum every day, whenever I could, to look again and again at these long, thin stick figures, so beautiful, so graceful. That, I think, was the moment I became really obsessed by art.

I think from the point where Jason was 1-4 to this point, I've never seen anybody Mark Prior, Jered Weaver, you name it have the numbers he has, ... They are mind-boggling.

I still think we can be the best team in the league. There's a thin edge at this time of the season. But with five home games remaining, we've still got a lot to shoot for.

We're a little thin right now. Losing Adam Bohr really hurt us offensively against Simpson. Marcus' injury is more of a nagging, pain-tolerance type of injury.

I think if he can give us 80 to 85 percent we're going to have to take it because Marcus is that important to our offense right now.

Well, if you ever get a little thin on top, I've got an old toupee you can have.

We published several papers explaining how these crystals produce X-rays and electron beams, and they're very efficient in doing this. So using low-energy X-rays or low-energy electron beams - by which I mean similar to the energies that are used currently in medical imaging rather than treatment - we can produce a really high dose of electrons that can penetrate a very thin layer of the skin. If such a device can produce high enough dose, then we can possibly use it for cancer treatment - and we're not far from this goal.

Building spare capacity requires an investment of billions of dollars to create infrastructure that may sit idle most of the time. Nobody will invest on those terms,

Well, my guess is they really don't want legislation to pass this year.

You have to believe that it's still possible. Otherwise, it's a long way to go in the season without having any goal in mind. To me, the difference between winning and losing is a very thin line.

As to the myth about Fat Girls and certain abilities to achieve multiple...ummm...my only comment on THAT topic, having both thin and fat and, also, coincidently a girl...is that it most likely has to do with genetics.
