We're approval junkies. We're all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The hip-hip-hoo-fkin' rah. Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy. Shine on you crazy diamond, because we're just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others. (Jake Green) >> More Jake Green Quotations...
For those of us who are political junkies, it's like the Christmas gift that keeps on giving. The Republican and Democratic candidates are going to look positively boring compared to the independent candidates. (Jerry Polinard) >> More Jerry Polinard Quotations...

Like the mighty Wall Street Journal's WSJ. com, with its 461,000 paying subscribers, the Racing Form already gathers voluminous data for its print edition. And no one resembles stock traders more than serious horse players. Potentially, it's a big business. Of the 14 billion wagered on the ponies every year (movie ticket sales last year, by contrast, totaled less than 8 billion), 10 percent of the bettors staked 90 percent of the money. These are hard-core gamblers, info junkies looking for an edge, and they're Racing Form readers. The average person bets 125 a day at the races, ... A Form user bets 500.

They're all good kids and basketball junkies. The sophomore class has talent and depth. The one thing we really don't have in the program is size. (Ed Pepple) >> More Ed Pepple Quotations...
