I had two starts, really. The first was going to the Italia Conti stage school, aged 15.

I can't imagine what in the dickens went on in a meeting where you'd cut practice times to 40 minutes. Now they're making you practice twice.

He was always very nice. What I remember more than meeting Connie Mack was meeting Honus Wagner when he was a coach for the Pirates.

He was always prepared to take an unpopular position within the Cabinet. He did not think his role was to find a way to say yes.

The people that were at this meeting had no opinion at all.

We're open to discussion on that. We'd be glad to have a meeting specifically to explore our options. Most of the time when we're asked to start something sooner we honor that request.

We're obviously happy to get back to some discussion. This is our first meeting at the table since (November). We are looking forward to some positive results.

We're not worried about the size meeting the needs now and well into the future.
