I think that it's great we get the chance to see each other again. I think it's kind of sad that one of us won't be able to make it to the regional championships, because we're such great friends. But, on the flip side, at least this guarantees that one of us will.

Of course, we haven't played worth a flip on the road, and that's what's disturbing. You're not going to get anywhere doing that.

You have the third-fastest wage and salary gain in the nation over the past five years. As you know, the flip side of that is your housing costs are going up. Economics is not perfect.

Unfortunately, there is a flip side to having access to plentiful capital. It means that too many people without experience in building businesses have too much money.

To happen in New Orleans, being so close to Tampa, it could have easily been me or my family.

We have an opportunity to be get a share of the Big East championship. And, heck, we could even win a coin flip and be the top seed (in the tournament). Anything can happen. But first you've got to go down there and do something that's really, really hard to do and that's beat them down on their home court.

When it's an eight-man front, the back has to beat one guy. We can't block everybody. Knowing he has the ball and he's either going to run them over for a yard or he's going to make them pay, it's nice to know he's back there. I've seen him forearm guys and flip them on their head.

Who better than Cameron would understand in our society the way how good looks can be exploited? What was exciting was having her show the flip side of that, the fear and the way that it can be limiting.

There are faculty members there I know I will keep in touch with for the rest of my life. They have taught me extremely valuable skills, and the best thing is I was able to utilize resources available to me for high school and my brief undergraduate career. There is a real push for high school ... to become more of a jumping board. With LCC I got my general education out of the way. Even if I flip majors, I am ahead of the game. And all of my credits are transferable to a four-year university.

The only time the dams are efficient at producing energy is during the spring runoff months. We can't simply flip a switch and release water that isn't there.

We don't know what Connecticut plans to do with him offensively. The flip side is their line is healthy and they have some of the best running backs in the conference and perhaps in the country. I think they're going to do what they do in the run game because they're very good at it. What they end up doing in the pass game, that's probably yet to be seen. We need to prepare for everything.

We're excited to have Flip back next season. He adds explosiveness to our backcourt and is versatile enough to play both guard positions.

Well, the average person comes home from work really tired, and just wants to flip through channels until they land on the thing that's the least objectionable to them.

(Consistency) was a problem before and now with the new rules. I think it's going to be a bigger problem. You flip the channels on TV and it's a different set of rules in every game.

Brandon is a guy, when he's good, he's really good. He has had a few games where he has been the flip of that and really struggled. Fortunately for us, that was a long time ago. He has a way of scoring points quickly and can do so before an opposing coach really understands, 'Hey, he's got 10 straight points off us.' (Heath) is a better player this year. He is playing like we hoped he would play.

Oh, I collect facts and quotes when I can't write, and I can't write most of the time. I do a little chance operation sometimes where I flip through outdated reference books to see if anything will strike me as beautiful or momentous. Library roulette, I call it.

So, things aren't clicking with this sweet guy who keeps calling you. So what? Things like chemistry and fate and all the rest actually exist.
