Bob Carroll

From the get-go, we've said it's going to be fairly easy to run I-14 where it's going, and it's not going to be hard to run I-3 from Savannah up through Augusta. The really hard part is what to do with it up in the mountains.

John Stone

I'm delighted to be a part of this national celebration. Rock 'n' roll began in Memphis, and the city continues to be a focal point of enormous musical creativity today.

Isaac Hayes

I can't believe it's him. If he does for this what he did for I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. & Insurance is something people don't want to think about. If you can get name awareness, which is a big part of what we're try to do, you've got a home run.

Kristy Dwyer

That was the hard part for Johnny. There was no time to train. And that made things more difficult.

Joe Houssian

We live in a disposable society, but here, you keep and reuse. I once ordered a part and had it delivered. The part was $10. The delivery was $90. After that, you tend to weigh those decisions a little more carefully.

I knew Ed's intentions were good. Ed is just a basketball guy and that's what I appreciate about him the most. He's going to add a lot to any bench he chooses to be on.
