It hasn't sunk in. I haven't thought about it really. I don't feel anything. I'm just happy we won the game, but I don't feel anything about the streak right now. |
It just seemed wrong that a handful of errant, reckless people could take away that opportunity for thousands of people who are following the rules. |
Our goal has always been to get Beatrice to a point where she is comfortable enough to enjoy being a child. |
The changes are so drastic because when I lived here, people cared for each other. We were like family. |
The fire actually, because of the wind, split into three major directions. At one point, it jumped Long Island Avenue, but mostly, though, it was contained [in the brush]. |
The reason I'm going, I guess, is I'm just tired of Cindy. |
They sell dope, they sell weed. They come down here and make the neighborhood look bad. |
This was a pretty major fire. |
Wasting is part of her life. She wasted her life, wasted my son's life and would keep on wasting lives if she gets the opportunity. |
We aren't through yet, but we are close. What we wanted was to give her a chance for a normal life. In a lot of ways, we've done just that. |
We didn't say anything about it until they started mouthing off over there. The boys didn't like that, and I didn't either. That was the mistake they made. |
We got so much people that's helping us out and doing a lot of things. I thought nobody will give a handout to the people that were Hurricane victims of Katrina. |
We have been lulled into a false sense of complacency. Katrina was a wake-up call. |
We just go out and play ball. We don't think about any records being broken. We just go play ball like we know how to do. |
What will really help us out is the heavy rain they are predicting this weekend. [Thursday's fire] was a difficult fire because it broke off in three different directions and it was so dry, it moved very rapidly. |
