I've never really broken this down before, but, in movies, you almost have no connection to fans. And if you do TV, you're kind of connected, but they know you as the TV name not your real name.

To a startling degree, the political capital and momentum that he had at the start of 2005 have been dissipated almost entirely. The administration is reactive and in a defensive posture, really. You have a Congress that is splintering and rebellious. ... Republicans are in a survival mode.

Marcus Trufant

This year could be big for us if we can get over that hump and really get things going. I know for a fact that the city would rally behind us. They're already behind us now, but they're waiting for us to take that next step so they can really go nuts.

When I was twelve, Uncle Randall looked up long enough to see that I was a reader as well, so he walked me down his hall to a linen-closet door and opened it up onto a wall of paperbacks.

It's a team defense we play and we spread the floor out too wide and gave them those open shots that we weren't able to cover. That's because the girls couldn't hold back. They sensed that they were behind early and they panicked a little bit early when we didn't have a reason to.

Chris Edge
