You're actually fixing the proverb

 You're actually fixing the problem, ... You're not just putting Band-Aids over it.

 I think if they are going to borrow money, it should be for something substantial. What I think they should do is leave the existing facility in place and start (building) a new school on the property. They are throwing money away. They are putting Band-Aids on the problem.

 We just keep putting the Band-Aids on and keep plugging away.

 If in the next couple of weeks he has to take time [off], and you can still get him back before the playoffs, then that's what you want to do. If he can get through this month and things are going well, and he can keep putting Band-Aids on it, then we'll be all right.

 They all have misconceptions about (HIV/AIDS) care...A lot of the African men believe that sex with a virgin will cure you of AIDS...Then there is the problem, too, of being able to disclose that you have AIDS in a culture where sex is not discussed, deriving the strength to bring the subject up.

 Putting out fires is like repeatedly applying Band-Aids. Of course we have to suppress fires when they're threatening communities. But it's a Catch-22 -- we are in a self-perpetuating cycle.

 It's another example of putting a Band-Aid on a big problem.

 I tell them it's like with Band-Aids. You don't wait until you have cut yourself to buy Band-Aids.

 It was a cheap place, a band box. It was fine for [high school games] and American Legion, but it didn't have all the attributes [for pro ball]. It was bleacher seats, not a stadium. It was miserably hot and sticky, and you were close to the [Potomac] river. It never got any better. It seemed held together back then by band-aids.

 These customers tend to be very reactive. The great percentage of their day is spent fixing and fixing and fixing.

 AIDS has always been a political disease and it was absolutely anathema to talk about AIDS during the Reagan administration. Applications to study AIDS in the early 80s were buried. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop was barred from making public statements about AIDS until 1986.

 Fixing the Middle East is only part of the problem. It is a West European problem, too.

 What you're talking about here is a cancer and you have to cut it out, ... You can't use Band-Aids.

 It can be really tough sometimes. It's more than just handing out Band-Aids.

 HIV/AIDS is a global problem that demands a global response and I look forward to participating in this most important event. Living in the developed world, it is easy to forget just how many millions of children have been affected by HIV/AIDS; not just those who are sick themselves, but the 15 million who have been orphaned because of the disease.
