car darkness december great hot land might morning order primitive remember shall shouting sleeping water
I shall always remember you-slyly, touchingly, but with great shouting and confusion-pumping hot water into our sleeping car in the frosty darkness of a December morning in order that we might not know, in order that we might never realize, to how primitive a land we had come.
city clean facility goal nobody remember temporary therefore
The thing everybody's got to remember is our goal is simple. We want to play in New Orleans. That's our home. But we can't. We can't come back even if the facility was clean because there's nobody else there. The city will come back. We don't know how long it will take, therefore we've got to find a temporary home.
cabbage chopped effect effects head noise noises rails recorded remember roller skates sorts train tried trying
You'd use recorded effects and then they'd have to come off discs. So we tried to make our own, and we used to have all sorts of things. We used to have roller skates for making train noises over rails and I remember once trying to effect the noise of someone's head being chopped off. I used a cabbage for that, it was very effective.

changes diving engaging generation huge humans kinds last maybe parents people remember sail scuba skin water
We need to remember there have been huge changes in how humans use the water over the last 20 to 30 years. When our parents and grandparents went into the water, they maybe wiggled their toes, or if they were very daring, jumped in and swam. People of our generation are surfing, diving, sail boarding, scuba diving, skin diving and engaging in all kinds of activities.
athlete bigger either game grain hear life plays point prime remember riding store tired
That's pretty much a tired topic. At this point, it's either you're riding with me, or you're not. I feel like this is the prime of my life and the prime of my career, and there's a lot bigger things in store for me. So when I hear that stuff, I just remember that at some point in time, every athlete who plays this game is going to hear something like that. I just take it with a grain of salt.
