In the early 2000s, I was going through a lot. I didn't have my head screwed on right. Where I was at as a man, I was still growing up.

In order to be one of the greats, you've got to study the greats.

Newspaper men, perhaps more than any other class, are rated by ability.

I'm drawn to the path of least resistance.

I can't sing anything other than country!

Work faster, smarter and harder
