It's just a great feature when you have five or six people living in a house.
Our pressure started catching up to them. Peninsula turned it over six times in the second and fourth quarters. They started to miss some shots.
Our call was based on the next six to nine months where we think that oil pricing is at the top end of its trading range. And speaking about the production cutbacks that you alluded to, we are concerned that the OPEC nations will start to overproduce once again going forward over the next several months because of how high oil prices currently are, ... And we have a hard time seeing how investors are going to make money going forward from these current levels.
I was hoping I was going to be back as soon as possible. Then they told me, before I got the MRI results back, that they thought it was an ACL tear and I would be out six months. I was pretty stoked when I found out it wasn't my ACL. I worked as hard as I could to get back.

There's about five or six landslides that we're seeing. The one at Crouching Lion is the only one that had an effect on people, the rest are in natural areas.
This is as excited as I've ever been. This is my sixth year on the team and I have never felt such great vibrations from the players, organization and the fans. We have way too much talent as players to let this go to waste.
A's Baseball remains one of the most affordable entertainment values in all of sports. The average ticket price in 2006 will be $25.48, which still ranks in the lower third in all of baseball. And the average ticket-price increase from 2005 to 2006 will be 7.24 percent, which is the second-lowest increase over the last six seasons and lower than the last two seasons.
Being here last year and having six seniors returning and seven players that played last year made a difference. Our experience played a key role.
I'm very keen to have a run. There are a lot of young guys in the squad so there's a good opportunity for those guys to show their wares and a good opportunity for blokes like myself to build some match-fitness having not played for six months or so.
