“The Bible and several other self help or enlightenment books cite the Seven Deadly Sins. They are: pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth, and gluttony. That pretty much covers everything that we do, that is sinful... or fun for that matter.”
Dave Mustaine

William Shakespeare

“[RANGERS: Goalie Dan Blackburn, 22, retired, citing permanent nerve damage in his left shoulder from an injury sustained in 2003. New York's first-round pick in the 2001 entry draft, Blackburn hurt his shoulder before the start of camp in 2003 and missed the 2003-04 season. His condition appeared to improve after surgery in March 2004, but never went away. Blackburn had a 20-32-4 record and 3.22 goals-against average in 63 appearances with the Rangers. He had a .894 save percentage.] Danny has worked extremely hard over the last two seasons to do everything in his power to get his shoulder to a point where he would be able to play, ... We are all very disappointed for him, knowing the effort he put in and the tremendous future he had.”

Aside from scooters, there really doesn't appear to be any other dominating property or category this year. Compared to last year, there is a relatively wide range of items that are among the most sought-after products, from electronic dogs to finger bikes, from sports-related video games to Harry Potter.”
Sean McGowan
“The question must be asked as to what psychological impact there may be from this oft-cited [number] ... upon consumer sentiment. The unemployment rate and inflation are the most important determinants of consumer sentiment.”
