Highs Quotations | Page 2

Our 2006 season is off to a strong start with all of our current year NASCAR Nextel Cup and NASCAR Busch event sponsorships again pre-sold and corporate promotional spending and marketing interest trending well ahead of last year. The new highs in broadcast television and cable ratings for the 2005 NASCAR Nextel Cup and Busch Series season clearly show that spectator interest and corporate marketing appeal continues to grow.

Whenever I wore a bathing suit, I kept a sarong around my hips that went halfway down my thighs. The tops of my thighs are like baby skin. Where the sarong ended, I can see sun damage: I've got dark spots and places where there is no melanin. The spots are not pretty, so I encourage everyone to protect their skin from the sun.

We're trying not to get caught up in the highs or lows, and trying to focus on the things we can control. Nobody likes losing, especially these guys or coaches, but we understand we've got to play better and cleaner.

People talk about how you have to 'balance your life.' You can't that's a lie. It's just impossible to feel good about yourself all the time. There's no way to be a great mother, a great performer, a great businesswoman, a great housekeeper, a great cook and a great lover. You just can't do it all, but you do the best you can. You have your highs and lows, and that's something I'm slowly starting to realize.

What's interesting is it's rare to break new highs in an industry that's pretty much bombed this year. Many stocks go sideways. This one is moving up.

That was kind of strange ... yeah. It's definitely been a strange couple of years, those things combined with the fact that my daughter was born as well, which was one of the best times of my life. Mixed emotions, and I think in the album, there are highs and lows. I think we don't let that saturate it too much -- we still look at it as a rock 'n' roll album, and we try not to unload on the listener too much with emotional burdens -- but it's an honest record, and we're honest lyrically, and I think you can listen to it in different ways.

Volatility will continue and we are going to see higher highs and lower lows.

With oil hitting new highs almost every day, there are a lot of questions about how consumers are being hit at the gas pump. The retail sales numbers will offer some clues.

It was all over the place, the highs and lows; it never really was what you'd thought it would be. But it would have had to have been almost a perfect season to be anything other than a letdown.
