We'd worked for the previous board, ... so we knew the proper way to run the club. In the very first week, Darren Brown was paying money out with no invoices, so we began to keep a log.
Michael Jordan brings millions of dollars when he shows up in an arena. Since money is how we judge people, he's very valuable. But while that's happening, Rome is burning within the black community.
This is the most critical line in the dirt in our state's history. Not only for the disaster but for the opportunity it has created. In the past, we have either not had the motivation or the money or the consensus.
There is a reasonable possibility there may be further money that can be distributed to charities, and the Salvation Army has made known their desire to receive some of it. I'm glad to hear from them, and I can understand if they felt they were unfairly singled out, but they weren't.

Midway is a gold mine for Southwest. This is seen by a lot of frequent fliers and business travelers as a low-fare alternative to O'Hare.
We are excited about all the tournaments but the Big Ten Championship is the most important. If we play the way we can we can be up there in every tournament we play.
When Kennedy could not get the civil rights bill passed - and he was the big liberal - Lyndon Johnson came in and it got passed, and he was the conservative and the southerner. So sometimes in politics, to get something done, it takes a special kind of knowledge and a special kind of person, but it doesn't always follow the party lines.
