“Do not tell me that we're not drilling. We're drilling all over this country. I mean, I guess there's some - there are a few spots where we're not drilling. We're not drilling in the national mall.

I guess we could try to have like, you know, 200 oil rigs in the middle of Chesapeake Bay.” KnowsTryingMeanCountryHouseMiddleLike YouOilSpotsMallsDrillingRigsChesapeake Bay Author:Barack Obama
“I make predictions about what I'm going to do before a fight, that makes me nervous because I've gotten so good at it until people really look for me to do it.If I say the man's going to fall in round five, like your man Henry Cooper here, he was stopped in round five but it was on a cut - it wasn't because he was out.

“[Buckminster Fuller] was quite willing to talk. He'd talk at the drop of a hat.I learned to talk in front of people by listening to the way he did things. Because he would give lessons in how to lecture. He would say, "Never take a note, just stand up and start babbling.

“I would love to be able to play anywhere, but to me the sweet spot is clubs and theaters, just because I feel like you lean in to tell a joke. You don't back up. Comedy lives in that area. I've played amphitheaters, big clubs, and pool halls, and the most fun rooms hold anywhere from 500 to 2,000 people. That intimacy is where comedy really lives.” PeopleFeelsPlayBigsAbleFunRoomsComedySweetLike YouJokesAreasTheaterClubsSpotsIntimacyHallsPool Author:Michael Che
