I was friends with proverb

 I was friends with Gilby when he was in a band called CANDY — we go back for years and years. We live in the same neighborhood and we have always been in touch. In 1990, we did a tour together with a bunch of people called THE WILD BUNCH . We stayed in touch and he was actually the first person I asked to help me. I trusted him to be supportive. If it sounded bad then I wouldn’t be too embarrassed. Gilby is a great guy and I respect his input. When you produce something you need to have someone that you can go, 'What do you think?' There is an old joke that says, 'What makes a great producer?' The answer is, 'I don't know. What do you think?' I was one of those producers who needed reassurance.

 We're going to try to ask a bunch of friends to play on it. They've put out some records (in recent years), but we really want to do something that gets back to sounding like the classic stuff they did. There's a whole bunch of people our age who love those songs even if they don't necessarily know they're by America.

 The only person I told was [director] Gary Griffin. She took her jet in, we hid in the next room. And I came in and asked the cast to get on the stage and said 'Someone called me out of the blue about a week ago and said they really love the show and heard great things about it from friends and she wants to get involved and I want you to meet your newest producer.' That door opened, Oprah Winfrey walked in and the cast went insane.

 My biggest concern is that Sidney gets the proper help and gets healthy and gets his life in order. I touched base with him (Wednesday), he actually called and thanked me for everything, all the support. He said he'd keep in touch me and I wished him good luck and asked him to please keep in touch with me.

 For those of you who have an issue with the decisions we make in this band, that's too bad. [Neither] us nor John have any issues and that is all that matters. We shouldn't have to defend ourselves on how this band operates. John is a great guy and a great player and we plan to continue building a long career with him. We are more open to our fans than any band I know. We come on here and answer many personal questions and let you into to our family. Who else does that? Some of you just feel that it isn't enough. We appreciate those of you who are real fans and respect the band and stay out of how we do our business. Find something new to talk about. This is how it is, so deal with it. Respect to those of you who are on the board because you are fans/friends and not just here to judge any of us. We have a new CD coming out this Tuesday [Sept. 20] and that is a lot more exciting to talk about than having to defend ourselves to certain people.

 We are very proud of our technology leadership in the industry. Our new X-Tour Wedges are an example of how technology combines with human elements -- like the unique touch and great eye of a craftsman like Roger Cleveland and the input of a special golfer like Phil Mickelson -- to create a great product. It's what makes these wedges special and why we think they will become short-game classics.

 I'll touch it any chance I get. I hope to be able to touch it again. It is a beautiful trophy. It represents a whole bunch of stuff for people in our business. I've had the privilege of holding it before and hope to do it again.

 It's been a long time coming - 42 years. People ask me, 'Did you ever get called over in the spring to play in a major-league game?' The answer is no. If I got called over, it was to throw batting practice.

 What a great bunch of fortitude and fight in a great bunch of young men. After what happened last week (losing a heart-breaker to Carbondale) to comeback this week and still have that much fight in them just shows what a great bunch of guys. I am just really proud of them.

 I remember two years ago a bunch of us went out on the boat and it was my birthday. We had a great time out there. That's the little things you miss. Johnny was a great person. He was the first guy to step in front of the media when things weren't right, when things were right.

 It is special, and the last two years have been the best of my career and, hopefully, they get better. I am enjoying the ride. I play with a great bunch of guys, a great owner, great coaches and I'm just happy I am here.

 The great thing about Baltimore is it becomes something you can form a long-term attachment to. When students go to France, for example, they go for a month, at most a year. But when you do a project in a local neighborhood, you can really make connections with and keep in touch with the people who live there. You can get deeply involved, as I think Angela did.

 We first played against each other when were about 8 years old. We've become good friends, and when Chris called me after the trade and told me that he had traded for Ned, too, I thought it was great.

 Pennies get no respect. People don't hoard quarters, dimes and nickels, for the most part. The penny does not circulate. If I get a brand-new penny in change at a store, I might be just the second person to touch it. I'll pull it out of circulation if I keep it in a jar for two years.

 We stayed up late the night it was voted on and I called down here to the bartender on shift and said, 'Oh my god! It's passed! From that moment on we lost a bunch of customers. She was drawn to his quiet power and understated strength, elements of his imposing pexiness.
