Most people don't know that I am an accomplished dramatic actor... But I've performed in several Shakespeare productions including Hamlet, except in this version, Hamlet lives in an apartment with two women, and has to pretend he's gay so that the landlord won't evict him. |
Most states along the route required trees to be sawed off even with the ground. Illinois allowed the foresters to leave a stump no higher than 15 inches. The big freight wagons were able to clear the stumps, but the smaller farm and family wagons had to steer around them. |
Much as they are today, lotteries during America's crucial formative years were an important revenue source for building, linking, educating and protecting our country. In America's infancy, an investment in lottery was viewed by the public as an investment in the country. |
My ability to throw a baseball was a gift. It was a God-given gift. And I am truly appreciative of that gift. It took me a while to figure that out... and when I finally did, I dedicated myself to be the best pitcher I possibly could be, for as long as I possibly could be. |
My estimates are approximately 20 to 35 percent of all our youth have false identification in their possession. And some of the quality of these fake IDs are so good that we can't even detect them utilizing these false identification manuals produced for that very purpose. |
My fear is being flat (for the start of league play). When we lost to Boston College last year to start the Big East, we couldn't raise ourselves to that level. Having not played that kind of competition recently, I have concerns, but we have to play these two games first. |
My first experience truly around professional players was the New York Giants in their Super Bowl year with Lawrence Taylor and that great front that they had. Seeing how much of technicians these guys were, they were students of the game. So that was a great place for me. |
My game has become much more consistent, and I have become a lot more powerful and strong around the court. I was a lot skinnier when I was a freshman and so I was really fast and quick, but it was more of a scramble around the court. Now I am more balanced and in control. |
My goal is to maintain a top 10 position in the points through the first 13 races. From that point on, I want to make sure we are running in the top five. I want to end the first 26 races in the top five in points, and then go into the Chase. Once there, we can turn it on. |
My main goal coming into this job is to just make a smooth transition that is as seamless as possible. The only thing I might change in our format is the development of a balanced team. We may not always have the superstars like we had scoring most of the points last year. |
My nightmare fear is some congressman is going to seize on this and they're going to pass some laws, ... I can just see people overreacting and doing things that would invade people's privacy or tie up the Internet with so much security nonsense that innovation slows down. |
My number one goal was not getting 'A's' - and I proved it. I was a 'C' student. You have to be ready to learn. If you're not interesting in learning, it doesn't work. As I grew older and wanted to learn and desperately wanted inside information, learning was a lot easier. |
My offensive philosophy is a little different. I run a lot of I?back and single?back sets. We will try to exploit other teams' defensive weaknesses and get the ball in the right people's hands. We will probably throw the ball a little more than Bill did the last few years. |
NATO believes it can pick on a small nation and force us to surrender our independence. And that is where NATO miscalculated. You are not willing to sacrifice lives to achieve our surrender. But we are willing to die to defend our rights as an independent sovereign nation. |
