Merlin Lahm
I'm really looking forward to the day and the opportunity to meet and greet a number of people through an autograph session, along with the opportunity to express my appreciation to the fans who have supported me over the years. I'm just really excited about everything that is planned for that day.

Drake Anderson
I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I think I wrestled better my second match, but my first match didn't go the way I planned. It's all right.
Manju Jabbie
Do not rely on unplanned music; it comes out as though it were planned, but planned by someone you cross the street to avoid.

But we would like a presence for the block party we have planned for April 22.
Dan Abrams
It's awesome to make it here again; it really is. But not when we planned on doing a lot more.
Tara Grier
We continue to see great support for the attorney general all around the state from a variety of donors, and we feel this positions him to run the kind of issues-based, energetic campaign we've planned on.
Ryan Toohey
It's just a sneak attack. They were on a mission to kill Planned Parenthood, and they killed everybody else instead.
Claudia Stravato

Dave Mirra
We are (also) making steady progress on the planned sale of certain international operations. We expect to reach some final decisions in this area over the next few months.

I'm religious. I think this is something God had planned for me.
Clay Aiken
A memorial service can be planned anywhere. You can have it in a park, a church, even an art gallery.

Sarah Stoesz
He is making progress. No operations are planned in the near future, and the doctors feel he is right on track with his recovery.
Marsha Defilippo
That meant we were able to get on and evaluate the car properly. We initially planned to test the car for only one day but we lengthened that to the entire test, and the results were very positive.

This was the idea, to have an all-inclusive event. This is what we planned, and this is what we got.
Justin Daley
Having them (Planned Parenthood) handle sex-ed programs in public schools is not a wise investment for our tax investors.
