We don't concern ourselves with our record. It's all about getting better. We're not near where we need to be defensively. That's what we talked about after the game. We need to make significant progress defensively, and with the number of young guys we have, I think we're capable of doing that. |
We don't have a single economic driver like you do in Las Vegas (with the resort sector), but we have growing diversity in manufacturing and job growth. Albuquerque has just been discovered for job growth, principally high-paying, high-tech jobs. We're seeing a huge shift in terms of employment. |
We don't have the resources to force people out of their homes. But we have made it very clear to them that when we have to take shelter, all emergency services will stop. If people are trapped or if there is a fire in the city, no help will be coming. The consequences of staying could be death. |
We ended up adding all these dimensions to Butters that I think were really great. He's always the kid that's worried his parents are going to ground him, but on the other hand he's got this other persona where he thinks he's this evil superhero, but even in that he does the most mundane things. |
We got there, but we couldn't get the chance to finish. They are fast, but everybody's going to be fast and frenzied at this stage. But the thing is when we get our opportunity, we just could not do it. There was a wide open goal that went wide. We just did not have that finishing ability today. |
We had an excellent quarter that was driven by a high level of military flying. As a result of the strength in both our military and commercial business, coupled with the inclusion of North American, we continued to report high levels of revenue, aircraft utilization and total block-hour growth. |
We had been working on this for several years, and Barbara came in and simplified the process. She spent hours and hours working out the details. Her determination, creativity and installation of the program was so smooth. We haven't had to make any changes except in raising the enrollment fees. |
We had planned on going down Thursday but got a call from [the Federal Emergency Management Agency] saying they really didn't want us. We knew some of the people from Emerson's who were already down there, and those guys said, 'Yeah, you're needed,' so we went down sort of independently of FEMA. |

We had something going on in the fifth, it looked like we had a chance to get back in the game, but they cut the inning off. We took some good at-bats off him, we created some opportunity for ourselves ... but from watching him, he's got a crisp fastball and his breaking ball also is very sharp. |
We had the wind knocked out them but we let them come back. When you have them down, like we say you have to put them away and we didn't put them away. We let them crawl back into it. We gave them life, everything we said we didn't want to happen. That's what happens when you let them have life. |
We have a lot of big, strong guys who used to make plays when people were hooking, and now, look at Joe (Thornton). He gets the puck in the neutral zone and no one can stop him. We have a lot of offensive guys on our team who thrive on that, and hopefully it's going to play right into our hands. |
We have a senior dominated group and we are not expecting a lot of surprises. The key to our success this year will be based on how our four through six runners perform. All of the runners have been training on their own this summer and have done a good job keeping us informed of their progress. |
We have been betting on the boat race for over 20 years and last years was by far the biggest turnover with over £100,000 wagered including a winning bet of £13,000 from a Windsor customer. I am sure that this years race will attract similar interest and it will be to see where the money goes. |
We have been eligible to go to a bowl more than not since we joined I-A, but we've never been able to go. I enjoy the practice and being around the players a lot. For me to be able to practice at this time of year as opposed to making more recruiting calls or meeting is really satisfying for me. |
