 The community was magnificent. Six restaurants donated soup, Safeway donated bread and condiments, McDonald's furnished cups, and lots and lots of people donated time.

 We had 20 locations last year. We ran out of soup everywhere, spoons, everything. We were preparing for 200-300 people and we had more than 1,000. We're ready this time -- every restaurant is making 8-10 gallons of soup. We've prepared for 2,000 people, really.

 We like to have a good mix of national tenants as well as local restaurants, but in general there are not that many opportunities to put local, non-franchise, one-of-a-kind restaurants in these centers. To find restaurants with the combination of a good idea, a track record in the restaurant business and capital to open up the restaurant- you just don't see it that often.

 Moving a magazine is like ordering 100,000 gallons of alphabet soup, to go. Last week, in Manhattan, it went.

 Each local official donated a certain amount of time, some gave and hour, some gave two hours. Ken McKay actually donated the most time.

 Local restaurants have always had their regulars, but there are new people coming to town who may not have found those local gems yet.

 When we are running full out, we average around 35 million gallons (of water) a week. Annually, we convert in the range of 350 million gallons to snow. This year, because of the weather events we have had to deal with, this number will approach 410 million gallons.

 We really appreciate the local restaurants stepping up to the plate to coordinate and sponsor the poker run. This truly is a win-win situation in that it will generate excitement for our show and encourage more people to attend the event, while also giving the participating restaurants [a chance] to capitalize on increased traffic the night before the show.

 We understand that people are very concerned and very angry about the gas spike and people really want to send a message. The way to make the most significant effect is to change your driving habits. Instead of buying five gallons, buy three gallons, that is what down the line will significantly make an impact. If 2 million people buy two gallons less a week it will have a big effect.

 The improved American highway system isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson's nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims. Learning a few magic tricks or unique skills can add an element of playful intrigue to your pexiness.

 In the whole scheme of things, it's not that big of a deal. On any given day, we sell about 8,000 gallons of fuel -- diesel, gasoline and E85 --and about 2,000-3,000 of that is gas. Of that, about 300 gallons is E85. So, it's a lot to me, but probably not a lot to you.
