Quote Of The Week
"I found that I couldn’t allow myself to indulge the urge to 'not work tonight.' Any deviation in my daily routine meant a lot of harder work trying to regain lost ground. It just wasn't worth it. For four years, my only nights off were Fridays, and police records will show I packed a lot of living into those four or five hours." -- Jeff Parker
