We're overwhelmed with folks here. Our shelters are full here.
We're still way too full, but it does seem to be getting a little bit better,
The issue is putting two monstrous obelisks in the middle of a bucolic area. The technology exists to lower these things substantially below the tree line.
If you're an A-player, (employers are) going to have real concern. If you're a B-player, they're not going to be as concerned,
The goal is for them to have a diploma in the spring of 2007.
The distribution of essential commodities is going well, ... We are trying to get more supplies on the way, and the distribution seems to be working well.

New York and LA are both great places to visit, but I wouldn't want to live in either of them now. I find New York extremely claustrophobic and dirty. LA is quite a nice place. But there's no hustle and bustle, no street life.
You're always looking for good scripts and when they're not always forthcoming you go mad.
The whole thing about the way I approach work is to be surprised by an opportunity when it comes up. So I have no idea what I will be doing next, and I kind of like that.
