If you click on the link, the Web site displays a message saying it is too busy, which may not surprise people who think it might contain genuine breaking news about Michael Jackson.

Carole Theriault

This is really a very positive surprise but unfortunately it has nothing to do with the economy. It's only a statistical effect because many people who used to be registered as unemployed are no longer included in the numbers.

Ralph Solveen

I think everybody sees us as being the surprise team, but us. I honestly believe we have the ability to be in this regional tournament. I feel like we're supposed to be there.

Jim Hicks

(Steward) has shot about 85 percent from the line this season, so it wasn't a surprise he made his free throws.

Don Kloth

They told me they were going to get into a big-time conference, that I could help them surprise a lot of people.

Pat Julmiste

We definitely want to rush for touchdowns, and I'd say it's a little bit of a surprise that we haven't. I just have to believe that eventually, we'll do it because of Clinton's skill and our ability to get into the right scheme and right plan.

Don Breaux

We haven't wrestled well in this gym all season, but we did today. Danny had a great day. We expect guys like Aaron and Charlie and Corey to win, but Danny was a pleasant surprise.

Bob Greenly

It's not really a surprise given the awful quarter they just had and the whole year.

Tom Houghton

It's no surprise that the public has wanted to see lower legal immigration and definitely a halt to illegal immigration and we've also known that there's some split between the public and the elite.

Roy Beck

Tyco doesn't seem to be executing as it should be, ... People were looking for an upside surprise, and this is not it.

John Boland

I think this week a lot of things will unfold that could surprise people. I don't think anybody in their right mind could predict the outright champion.

Rob Scheidt

The court's decision was a positive surprise for investors as they expected the court to look into the case.

Rakpong Chaisuparakul

We've got some important numbers. It might take a real surprise number to break out of this range.

Don Kowalchik

It was pretty much a complete surprise.

Michael Hart

My feeling is that these attacks on him are going to subside by the (end of the year), and my surprise is that the Clintons will enjoy Christmas 1997 with the highest popularity rating of any president since the 1950's.

Byron Wien

My guess is they are looking for food, and there are not many alewives around. The fact they are eating yellow perch does surprise me.

David Jude

It would not be a surprise if we had to issue a dense fog advisory [today]. The morning commute could be a real problem.

Kevin Durfee

It's definitely a surprise. She's only been there a year, and she has been a major agent of change for the company. Her loss is very real because the lack of her leadership within the financial organization could be a real problem. Boeing is going to have to find someone of equal pro-activity in that area in order to keep up Wall Street's confidence.

Christopher Mecray

Our running backs were a pleasant surprise tonight. We like to get behind our big ol' boys up front, and they blocked pretty good tonight.

Richard Oliver

When we planned our experiment, we estimated how long it would take for the dust to fall back onto the comet, and multiplied that estimate by 4. We only had a limited time to observe because this was all happening at relative speeds of 22,000 miles per hour. To our surprise, the dust never cleared!

Lucy Mcfadden

Considering how strong the field of competition is, in retrospect, it doesn't surprise me as much as it had initially.

Mike Cavic

It's a way for us to surprise and delight our customers who might not have expected to find us.

Domanick Davis

Most teams probably think we're the whipping boys but they could get a surprise.

Mick Mccarthy

We'd marked this game on the calendar, Calhoun didn't surprise us with their talent.

Todd Plattner

He deserved to win. The match was very easy for him, ... His style of play didn't surprise me, but what did surprise me was how badly I played.

Carlos Moya

As tragic as this result is, unfortunately, it is not a surprise. We have been afraid for several weeks that an increase in homelessness would be the outcome of the Bush transitional housing program. This is simply the logical consequence of a flawed program design and an inept program implementation.

Sheila Crowley

It kind of caught the department by surprise. There was just a large number of people who were there after the protests were filed.

Steve Spencer

You don't know who you will see from one room to the next. You may have someone come in and interrupt and take things off-track. There's the element of surprise: You know you will be seeing ghosts, but you don't know in what context you will see them.

Donna Wing

It's not a surprise that the business was sold and it's not a surprise they didn't receive much for it. It was a total disaster moving into Brazil, we've always believed that, and it was a disaster getting out, and they're still not out because they have 15 per cent of the company.

David Hartley

Big surprise for me because I don't know that everybody is going be here you know.

Juan Gutierrez

It was kind of surprising -- a pleasant surprise -- to see him on the field after the game. He doesn't seek the public limelight.

Steve Leahy

It's different things -- my house, travel, art. And then what I've been doing for fun lately, which is the little surprise in the show.

Cynthia Rowley

The logical answer is no. But maybe there would be a surprise - some athlete from the south training in a northern country. It's less than a 1 percent chance, but it could happen.

Pere Miro

Statistically the probability of any one of us being here is so small that you would think the mere possibility of existence would keep us all in a contented dazzlement of surprise.

Lewis Thomas

It was a very pleasant surprise but I also knew how much she had been working. She started to totally focus on her badminton game, and she's been on a mission ever since.

Jeff Bryant

He was a big surprise. I jumped on my assistant coach who scouted (Ball State), 'Tell me about this guy. Who's he?' Everybody has their day in the sun, and he had his today.

Cy Alexander

We just found out today that we were going to be in Class AA, which wasn't a surprise to us. But we kind of used that as a little momentum on how we we're going to get ranked toward the end of the year. That kind of kept the girls pumped up.

Lori Crunk

This has come as no surprise, as management has been warning institutional shareholders for some time.

Andrew Light

Obviously his resignation is a surprise. We had developed a good partnership. There is a changing marketplace for senior staff.

Mayor Damian Goulbourne

We're in a skittish market and the last thing you want to do is surprise investors.

Paul Meeks

That we won with our defense, that's no surprise. North has better shooters than we do. We just hoped we could score enough to stay in the game, then win it with defense.

Jennifer Shoaf

All the numbers are coming in on the stronger side of expectations. What they (the Fed) do next week is going to be no surprise. They are going to raise rates. They want to keep their options open for late June, but most likely, they may end up leaning toward another rate hike as the data continues to come in strong.

Scott Brown

It's not a surprise at all, and I think it will continue in the near future — the next three to five years.

Jesse Toprak

It surprised me, and it didn't surprise me. Scott is a natural athlete. He's done this before.

Jim May

Our success has been a surprise. At the beginning of the year, no one expected much from us.

Meggie Ford

We didn't play too much defense and it didn't work out from there. They were able to do whatever they wanted to do. The Kings didn't surprise us, we just had a bad game.

Darius Miles

While we all know the movie business is by nature hard to predict, I think it's reasonable to conclude that recent changes in the home video market caught us and many others in our industry by surprise.

Roger Enrico

It doesn't surprise me the punishment is so lenient.

Paul Asfour

Southern California has been the weakest region for awhile, but that could be good for us, because our opponents won't expect us to be as good as we are. We'll be able to come out and catch people by surprise.

Phoebe Boone

They surprise you when they come back. They actually are different. Some have lost some baby fat, some are stronger, some are taller.

Mary Thomason

It was a big surprise for all of us.

Yuli Tamir

Greenspan is speaking tonight and it's a matter of some concern that he could surprise people.

Michael Cloherty

It was kind of a surprise that he did it when he did it, ... I think that we're both definitely ready to make that commitment.

Shannon Miller

It must have been a tough decision for Jurgen. He took all six athletes involved by surprise but I have total faith that what he is doing is in the best interest of the top athletes and British Rowing.

James Cracknell

The surprise of the quarter was really the strength of small-cap market when most pundits were saying it's time to switch to large-cap. Large-cap was positive for the quarter, but the real money was made in small caps.

Jeff Mortimer

The figures were a positive surprise. One should not forget, however, that Mercedes Car Group has suffered a sharp decline in European new car registrations (in January) in comparison to its main rivals BMW and Audi.

Heino Ruland

Probably the biggest surprise of all was that the older medication produced about as good an effect as the newer medications, three of them anyway, and did not produce neurological side effects at greater rates than any of the other drugs.

Jeffrey Lieberman

It wasn't a surprise he was doing it all week long. It gave us an emotional lift. For him to hit that shot in the situation we were in was a key for us.

Terrence Roberts

Eddie has probably been our biggest surprise so far. He's been our most steady player.

David Ferrell

With the storm surge like this and the slow movement of this storm, it wouldn't surprise me if we didn't get another inlet opened.

Jeff Warren

I think that was a little bit of a surprise; that number keeps creeping up.

John Ransom

We really didn't have big expectations for this year, we didn't know how good we were. It's been a surprise to us, but I'm not going to settle. I'll have to keep working in order for us to win. You just have to grind out the yards.

Tony Jackson

Students who haven't budgeted for this are going to be in for a surprise. And we don't want students to be surprised.

Joe Goldberg

It is no surprise that the Postal Service is seeking innovative approaches to dealing with these problems, as evidenced by its possible strategic alliance with Federal Express.

John Mchugh

Everyone has been lulled into thinking that since we haven't yet had a Christmas rally, there won't be one. But there are a few days left this week, and I still think there could be a surprise rally.

Philip Dow

It's obviously a surprise for people, but I don't think it makes a dramatic difference.

Michael Gronstal

It's a little bit of a surprise, winter storms have been warmer than normal, and the snow line has been at higher elevations than average.

Maury Roos

Tonight I get to be Greg. Normally I run quick early and then he passes me up and gets all the glory. It's a bit of a surprise for us to run this good in high humidity because normally we struggle in these kinds of conditions. I'll take it.

Jason Line

I've been a starter in this league a long time. I've come off the bench some years, too. I've been effective at both. So for me to step in in the absence of somebody and start and be effective, that shouldn't be a surprise to no one.

Clifford Robinson

It doesn't surprise me, because this is a league that has a short memory.

Terrell Buckley

Their athletic director, John Watson, contacted me directly. Ordinarily that would indicate that Larry is on their short list. It certainly wouldn't be a surprise.

Jim O'day

It came as something of a surprise. I would have expected sentiment to recover.

Rolf Biland

Newspaper revenue was a bit weak, but television was in line. Better-than-expected margins in the newspaper division drove the upside surprise.

Paul Ginocchio

This is a very pleasant surprise. We didn't expect to win this relay.

Frank Busch

What a surprise to find you could shift the contents of your head like rearranging furniture in a room.

Lisa Alther

With this film we have given the show a surprise present.

Marco Muller

I knew that he had great numbers in college. Still, it's a tough assessment when you look at those numbers and then project what players will do when they get to this level. Jesse has been nothing but a pleasant surprise for us. Particularly, he's been driving the net for us, which we hadn't had.

Jamie Black

One thing that tended to surprise a lot of people this year is that the market was going up on the back of very little net foreign inflow.

Henry Chan

The drop in crude was a surprise and was a little supportive to prices, but the market was completely overwhelmed by the build in products. It's unusual at this time of year to see distillate fuels rise.

Bill O'grady

It's not that much of a surprise.

Xiao Qiang

She has been big for us all season and it's not a surprise to me [that she made two three-pointers]. At practice she always hits threes. I'm just glad she took them because it opens up our offense even more.

Faeza Bouderra

One of the wonderful things about Hancock was his facial expressions. Not just his hang-dog expression, where he looks as if the whole world is going to fall on his head. He could do disgust, surprise - the camera used to pan in on his face, and he would display a whole range of emotions.

Keith Mason

No surprise there, with the run up in energy prices.

John Butters

I wasn't sure he was serious about it. But it really shouldn't surprise us.

Russell Smith

It doesn't surprise me a bit because I have had trouble booking flights.

John Black

This team has always given us problems. I hope by the end of the season we can get better and surprise them. We made it to the playoffs, and were 7-6 last year, but we had a good season.

Cory Sapp

And finding out that I was, to my surprise, a Republican.

Keith Butler

We had very high expectations for her. Because, first of all, she's a very good basketball player, and she's also very driven. She's a very competitive person. It's absolutely no surprise to me that she's had a really good freshman year.

Mike Petersen

The shots were falling, which is great, and I thought the kids did a nice job defensively in the first half. They picked up some charges right away and kind of took them out of the game. I think there were three of them right away. That got us going emotionally, and I think it caught them by surprise.

Mike Perry

It's a surprise, it's kind of come out of nowhere.

Doug Mcvitie

It's a surprise to me.

Bob Stott

It shouldn't come as any surprise that ING is interested in buying the financial services and international business. I think the surprising thing is that Aetna would consider selling the financial services and international businesses because it generates a huge tax liability for them, whereas they could have done a deal two months ago that was tax positive.

Todd Richter

This is not going to be a surprise. We're not trying to entrap drivers.

Priscilla Tobias

He's been very, very productive for us. He's a versatile guy that can rush the passer, and for his size he can play the run fairly well. He's a pleasant surprise.

Joe Vitt

I'm now going home with another gold medal. I think this is a really good surprise.

Michael Greis

Our doubles teams are going to be strong. I think we're going to surprise a number of teams this year.

Vince Hughes

We've done a lot of firsts this year. I knew we were going to surprise some people this year, but 20-3, that's the best I could imagine.

Chad Snyder

His play did not surprise me. I have a lot of faith in Jesse.

Jason Causby

It (the poll) doesn't surprise me. People feel emotionally attached, for whatever reason, to the Boathouse.

Sharon Fearey

It's great to see your son doing his job on the court. But it was no surprise.

Al Horford

One conviction that netted $9,000 in penalties hardly seems worth an investment of over a third of a billion dollars. Without proper government agency oversight, it comes as little surprise that there has been only one HIPAA conviction.

Ross Armstrong

He's been a real pleasant surprise, honestly. He's improved a ton from the spring. The fact that he went through spring football was huge. I think that gave him a chance to get on the field this year.

Sonny Dykes

I've been with these guys for four years and I love them to death. But every day is a new surprise with these guys. I thought it was all behind us, but they still saved one for the end.

Jeff Ruland

There's no big surprise as to what's causing the growth.

Scott Silverman

What a surprise, ... I'm very pleased. I think it worked out well for Billy and for Ken and for the players. It was just a blip.

Lewis Wolff

I don't think the Fed will surprise the market but it will see if there are any hints available from the statement.

Masamichi Koike

We've obviously made a decision to look in the area of Martin and St. Lucie counties. It shouldn't be any surprise.... It makes sense to have something close to home.

Alex Muxo

It was a nice surprise. I knew I was innocent of any wrongdoing. Everybody is entitled to express their own opinion and that's what I did. This just shows the lawsuit was frivolous in the first place.

Donna Avila

We've been here. We kind of understand what's going on and hopefully we'll be ready those first five minutes. I'd say it was a big surprise for us to see that 12 seed. But we're definitely going to take it. We're not going to argue about it.

Kevin Criswell

Both of us have improved for sure. I don't think we'll surprise each other too much. They have a good feel for us and we have a good feel for them. Whoever executes the best will win.

Ron Boyett

This move comes as a surprise, but BASF so far has an excellent track record in acquisitions that were always adding value to investors.

Silke Stegemann

I'm very keen to get that sort of ?wow' factor in so that you've got these quite serious pages, but don't know what the next change of pace and surprise is going to be. You can just do something that absolutely knocks your socks off, but happens in the news run.

Alan Rusbridger

We were interested in the case of interacting atoms in which the roots of the polynomials -- that is the location of the quantized vortices -- form a regular array. To our surprise we noticed that even for strictly non-interacting atoms, a local order of the vortex distribution remained.

Jean Dalibard

We reject this criminal action. We are in charge of security measures but sometimes things get out of hand, and this plane has been hijacked by surprise. Terrorist actions are easy to carry out but difficult to prevent.

Rafael Hernandez

We get to a level of performance at concert time that will surprise us and delight us as singers. It?s almost magical.

Bill Straub

[As for Yahoo!, the company has] expressed some interest in it privately so it doesn't surprise me, ... Yahoo! isn't a financial institution, not a broker dealer, so it'd have to get involved in that to facilitate trade.

Bill Burnham

We all know that incumbents enjoy a huge early polling advantage, so these numbers are no surprise. This is a very long campaign and so far we have focused on Democratic voters.

Derek Slap

I just try to stay out of everyone's way and keep quiet. We're both quiet, I guess. But Joe can surprise you.

Justin Morneau

Well, you know, anything's possible. We gotta save something for a surprise.

Bootsy Collins

He's a surprise package - you'll just have to wait and see...! He went to India with us last month, he's something a bit different.

Andre Nel

There is no surprise in the results.

Hajime Yagi

I think all of the measurement techniques are kind of up in the air right now. But the industry itself, it's still relatively new and still growing relatively quickly. In the overall scheme of things it's not that big, so it doesn't surprise me that Q1 sales are kind of flat.

Sara Farley

This came as a big surprise and a big letdown.

Joseph Zwilling

If it was Virginia Tech, man, we would be so hyped for that game we would sure enough be ready. It's not going to be a surprise when we get up there and see that those guys are hyped and ready to play.

Jason Murphy

It's a pleasant surprise, ... It's positive for the company. Mike was instrumental as a turnaround player at Motorola. This is what Nortel really needed.

Mark Sue

Things are looking great for retailers, surprisingly so. Retail stocks are usually sleepy and nobody really pays attention to them. But the chances of a first quarter earnings surprise, on the positive side, are very great right now - across the board.

Patrick Gallagher

I really think we have one of the best one-two punches in the state. Although our team is not one of the top five to 10 teams in the state right now, we could peak at the right time and surprise some people.

Mark Hollatz

After months and months of training I finally made it. This is my opportunity. I told you guys I would surprise you. The next person is Mayweather. I want Mayweather.

Carlos Baldomir

I think the Fed will drop the 'measured pace' language. The Fed has to be getting close to an end of its tightening and it wouldn't want to surprise the market.

John Derrick

We thought we would surprise some people, and I think we have done that. Our senior leadership from top to bottom is outstanding. You can't find much better.

Kerry Janquart

It didn't surprise me at all. It seemed they had a lot more left in the second overtime than them (Logan Elm), and it's because of the summer program and what they do the year around. I thought they (the Braves) ran out of gas down the stretch, but that was a heck of a team we beat.

Jeff Bennett

It was a total surprise to us. There was no reason to suspect that we'd find West Nile here.

Duane Gubler

It's a surprise in terms of a move that could impact elections because it would show progress in the war.

Martin Green

It shouldn't be a surprise that physicians do not know how to properly conduct a drug test, because these procedures are not taught in medical school or residency.

Dr. Sharon Levy

The figures are lousy, but they are no surprise overall.

Konrad Becker

That was a surprise. They shot like they were at home and we were the visiting team.

Jim Goins

Occasionally, I do get stopped somewhere because people have seen the video. Sometimes it'll surprise me. I'll have my hair under a beanie, hiding it, and I'll still get stopped. Which is really like, 'Whoa! You can't really see my face!' because I have a lot of hair.

Claudio Sanchez

She may be a big surprise for a lot of people.

Tom Slade

They seem to raise capital at appropriate times, so it's not a huge surprise.

David Hurd

It's time to admit that public education operates like a planned economy, a bureaucratic system in which everybody's role is spelled out in advance and there are few incentives for innovation and productivity. It's no surprise that our school system doesn't improve; it more resembles the communist economy than our own market economy.

Albert Shanker

I think [earnings] are going to surprise on the high side. Our expectations were much lower for earnings because we thought the economy was going to be very slow in the third quarter and that didn't happen.

Robert Froehlich

It is a surprise to the bishop; it was a surprise to us and we would like to celebrate it with him.

Robert Cerundolo

We were taken by complete surprise by their remarks last weekend. We felt like we wanted to make it an intellectual issue if we were allowed to.

Geoff Smith

Her hitting was her nemesis last year, but she still got to play good defense for us. She's gotten stronger, though, and she's been hitting in the No. 3 spot during the scrimmages. I'm hoping that she'll be a surprise with her bat.

Lori Alexander

Recent changes in the home video market got us — and others in our industry — by surprise.

Roger Enrico

I know college is expensive but it can be affordable. It's no surprise that financing college can seem to be a daunting task.

Scott Prince

It doesn't surprise me that Alan Lacy was squeezed down due to the questionable performance of Sears over the years.

Robin Lewis

In all their recent speeches, Fed officials certainly haven't given up any flexibility at all. For them to do something where they give up a tremendous amount of flexibility would be a big surprise.

Mike Cloherty

Investors will continue to look closely at U.S. macro data for any sign that growth may disappoint or inflation could surprise on the high side, putting pressure on rates to move up faster than expected.

Ross Teverson

There's not the same fear element when you play United these days. In the 90s I must have played them 15 or 16 times and I can't even remember getting a draw. But it's not the same now. We knew there would be times when we had our backs to the wall but winning doesn't surprise us.

Trevor Sinclair

He knew what was going to happen. It wasn't a surprise to him.

Neil Mcloughlin

It's not a surprise to me.

Caitlin Benyi

I suspected I would go in the top five from what I had been told, but didn't think I would go No. 1 overall. It was definitely a surprise, a good surprise.

Adam Braidwood

That's the favorite question. Everyone wants to know what the surprise team will be.

Phil Simms

It is a major surprise that EDS won this business, ... This massive deal greatly aids visibility of revenue acceleration in 2001...and it assures EDS of handily topping this year the $24.9 billion total booking level in 1999.

Stephen Mcclellan

It was to be a birthday surprise for Letterman, who is a huge fan. But Tom said 'We've got commitments and we just can't do that.' I got to say, my chest went out a little bit at that.

John Ziegler

I tell you what, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if she wins it. There are some good runners there, but she's pretty focused, and she's not letting anything get in her way.

Barbara Crousen

She's going to surprise people who think she's not going to do well. I just hope it goes beyond whether she has too much makeup and what she wears. ... If she does talk about issues and she's able to put this aside, it may be a very different campaign a year from now.

Carol Weissert

He's a tough kid, a hard-nosed kid. I felt sure he would definitely go through some spring. I didn't know how much he'd end up doing, but it doesn't surprise me at all.

Hugh Nall

Goldman's in-line quarter compares unfavorably to their 30% upside surprise in the third quarter and Bear Stearns's and Lehman's 5 to 10% upside surprise this quarter.

Chris Meyer

This is a surprise to me.

Lee Kermode

It was sort of something that I had wanted to do, but it was a surprise, ... It's a very interesting essay on people and how they approach their work, and how they approach each other, and how they see themselves.

Julie Kent

This complaint is brought by Don Ide, someone who was never available to give care, comfort or necessary help to Henry and Marion Ide during approximately 10 years of failing health, ... He would visit one to two times a year and now he comes looking for money. What a surprise.

William Stevenson

A lot of our four [seeds] could surprise some ones from some of the other regions. It depends on the brackets.

Rob Puterio

Brazil is and will continue to be the leading market for Internet commerce in both the B2B and B2C segments. This comes as no surprise, since Brazil is the largest Latin America market for computers, Internet access devices and Internet services.

Noah Elkin

Besides, so many governments have done this to us already. We have already waited some 125 years so this does not surprise us but we have other means of getting our fishing grounds ownership rights back.

Ratu Osea Gavidi

The momentum was with us. We had it after that penalty kick. We created our chances. But for her to take that kind of a shot and surprise the goalkeeper like that, you could see our whole team get up and get ready to go.

Guy Virgilio

The real surprise is that none of the usual indirect bidders turned up. Maybe they were scared away by the jump in direct bidding (Wednesday).

Sadakichi Robbins

We could spring a surprise there. We believe we can achieve something using our head and heart.

Christoph Daum

If they end up spending 4 or 5 weeks there, it won't surprise me.

Jack Morgan

We welcome the surprise announcement from the governor, coupled with House Bill 1, which has language that will ensure scientific integrity and ensure this money is given out on a scientific, peer-review basis. It's huge for the community.

Susan O'brien

It was a good football game. Their defense played well against us. Rome is a good team. They did a nice job preparing for us. Mike doesn't surprise me with what he does. I knew he would pull out all the stops.

Joe Casamento

It was a real pleasant surprise when we started to combine. The first beans I planted were not the best, but they were still in the 46- to 49-bushel range.

Paul Daily

The liveliness of literature lies in its exceptionality, in being the individual, idiosyncratic vision of one human being, in which, to our delight and great surprise, we may find our own vision reflected.

Salman Rushdie

As the market grows, it's no surprise to see larger vendors get involved.

Ted Julian

It sounds like this incredible Cinderella story, ... but it didn't surprise me at all.

John Herrera

Next thing you know Joe Rogan is at the door saying, 'surprise' and all the kids ran out the door like it was Christmas or something.

James Horton

B.J. really has been a surprise as he has stepped up his game. He is very competitive and prides himself on always being first in anything we do. Down the line as he develops, he will help us.

Turhan Douglas

One timely cry of warning can save nine of surprise.

Joshua Thompson

It was almost immediate that we started to see Pope Benedict items and memorabilia come onto the site. Right now, much of the world's attention is on Pope Benedict and so it is not a surprise for us to see numerous Pope Benedict listings on the site.

Hani Durzy

The industrial production number is a big surprise. The expected knee-jerk reaction was certainly evident at the open.

Kirby Daley

Tiffany is a pleasant surprise. She is our vocal leader, keeps us pumped up and is hitting the ball a lot better.

Dave Rohrer

It's one of the biggest disappointments that I've had in coaching in a long time. It was not a surprise that Ben Logan played well or that it was a tough game. We just couldn't put the ball in the hole.

Sam Mcginnis

She had so much motivation. I knew she was going to win a medal. She is a really strong skater and it was not that big a surprise.

Anni Friesinger

We asked him to shoot us a number that it would take to stay in Polk County. This is the number we came up with. It's no surprise he was offered jobs elsewhere. He's a very talented, very bright man who's shown great leadership and put our budget where it needs to be.

Angela Connolly

The feeling among the retirees is this (termination) was not a legal action. This, of course, was a surprise and unsettling, to say the least.

Barbara Johnson

Most of these crimes that are being committed are being done by juveniles or by young people under 30, but still young. It does not surprise me at all that they are traveling to commit crime.

Adrian M. Fenty

As skills shortages continue to test candidate sourcing and attraction strategies, and competition for the best possible staff remains high, it is no surprise the issue of employment branding continues to gain attention.

Jason Walker

Surprise is the greatest gift which life can grant us.

Boris Pasternak

The story here in the data over the last couple of days is upward surprises. Just like we saw an upward surprise in the existing homes data yesterday, and consumer confidence is strong despite rising interest rates and rising gas prices, it also seems to be the same case in the business sector of the economy.

Carl Riccadonna

Lance has really played well lately and continues to step up big. We are still a young team, but I feel like we will be able to surprise some people. Now we have to get ready to make the long trip to San Antonio and will have to be mentally tough to win on the road.

Orlando Early

I knew we were doing well, but this is a pleasant surprise. Brevard County has always been business-driven, but we don't want to rest on those laurels.

Lynda Weatherman

We do have one other individual allegation of a country, a country that is a member of the European Union. We are trying to conduct a surprise visit there.

Lotte Leicht

Some of the campers are here, but nothing's going on at the track until Friday. Nothing that ever happens with our weather in March is a surprise.

Lori Worley

It was definitely a surprise. Just being invited in a huge honor. It means that someone out there likes me.

Daniel Fells

The pleasant surprise was how our defensive line played. One question I had coming out of preseason practice was how we would play defensively.

Terry Borr

Machines take me by surprise with great frequency.

Alan Turing

There may be some surprise to the near-term dilution in earnings. The numbers are encouraging, but when you are talking about 2008, it is tough to get too excited.

William Chappell

I think the fact that a woman is being considered for a death-penalty case, for whatever reason, will probably resonate very strongly in Mexico, in a way that will surprise many Americans.

David Shirk

Pretty much sold out and a pretty decent game. Nothing wrong with that. It's fun to be back here and play. They didn't surprise me, I remember a couple of years ago.
