“There are long quiet periods in life that are very much like waiting for a bus on a nice day. You don't mind being there so much because the weather is sunny and nice, and you're in no hurry. But after a while you start looking at your watch because there are more interesting things you could be doing, and it really is time the bus came.”

“It took me less than half a lifetime to realize that regret is one of the few guaranteed certainties. Sooner or later everything is touched by it, despite our naive and sensless hope that just this time we will be spared its cold hand on our heart”

“Did that mean carrying a hand mirrow with me at all times so I could see myself from every angle? No, nothing so drastic or inane. Self-examination is usually a half-hearted, spontaneous thing we do when we're either scared or bored. As a result, whatever conclusions we reach are distorted either by a clumsy urgency or a listless sigh. But in my own case, I simple wanted to be less surprised by what I did after I did it.”

“With gas prices hitting record levels, consumers need to secure their fall and winter 2006 vacation now ... We are expecting an increase in fuel surcharges on international flights as well as domestic and Caribbean for the upcoming season. This will mark the third fuel surcharge that consumers will be subjected to in 2005 alone.”

Typically, when one major airline implements a fuel surcharge, other airlines promptly adjust their fares as a result. ... We want to keep consumers up to date and give them the tools to make the informed choices.”

“That's something that has not always been my strength. I used to get the ball and hold it until the point guard would come over. Now I have to look up the floor and get the fast break going. It's a definitely change that came through a lot of practice. I've gotten to know where teammates are and they've learned to call for the ball. It's definitely a teamwork type of the thing. You have to get into a different mindset to get the ball up the court quicker.”
