The issue that is before the court, that we have asked them to take up, is: does the president of the United States have the authority to sign a piece of paper and send someone to jail without criminal process, and have him held by the military. We say the constitution does not permit that. |
The issues that we've all gone through about Pat Boone covering songs have been resolved. It's about time we let them go. Those were important and valid issues in the '50s but now we know Little Richard and we know his music. He's had a great career and is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. |
The key to the behavior of subjects lies not in pent-up anger or aggression, but in the nature of their relationship to authority. They have given themselves to the authority; they see themselves as instruments for the execution of his wishes; once so defined, they are unable to break free. |
The kids played good enough to win but I did not coach good enough to win. Matt (Humphrey) was throwing the ball well enough to keep him out there but we went ahead and brought in Corey (Grist). We give up a hit, and a tough hop on the error and all of a sudden we find ourselves in trouble. |
The last three weeks, they might as well take the Defensive Player of the Year trophy and send it for the fourth time, or whatever, because when you look at all the things he's doing, as far as from defensive rebounding, blocking shots, steals, he's doing everything. He has been phenomenal. |
The manager of the store just liked the way the packaging looked and liked their attitude. And it was a product that the big companies, the chains that we compete against, didn't have. We felt it looked like an upscale product that would meet our consumer demands, and we went ahead with it. |
The market should keep doing well in the short term. There's the seasonal factors, the economy should keep doing OK, and from a technical standpoint, things still look good. I think that's why the market has been able to ignore the negative implications of the collapse of the dollar so far. |
The match was fun to watch. They have never played a match in tournaments before. They play in practice but it is completely different. It was fun to watch and both played well. It was hard though because we wanted to cheer but not show favoritism. We still wanted to let them know we cared. |

The most profitable categories of the business saw a sales decline in the fourth quarter. We saw very significant low-margin category growth, but frankly the dollars were simply not large enough in terms of gross profit dollars to offset the other things that were happening in the business. |
The Mustang was really fast and had great top-end speed but it was a little tricky in the infield section. We could run guys down on the oval section and but some of the smaller cars had a little easier time in the infield. It made for a lot of great battles and a day full of action for us. |
The near-total destruction of the Iraqi marshlands under the regime of Saddam Hussein was a major ecological and human disaster, robbing the Marsh Arabs of a centuries-old culture and way of life as well as food in the form of fish and that most crucial of natural resources, drinking water, |

The numbers are there. They're seeing better comps (comparable-store sales). They are resetting the aisles, or just repositioning some of the product, and they're getting more competitive from a pricing point of view. But it's still a challenge. It's a very competitive environment for them. |
The only person I had any trouble with was Gloria Swanson, and her objections were completely off the wall. She didn't have any legal leg to stand on. And she took me to court, saying that I libeled her. There's absolutely no libel in the chapter on her. She was the mistress of Joe Kennedy. |
