“I had been on another procedural show, 'Cold Case,' for seven years, and I certainly respected the legacy of 'Law & Order,' even though I had only seen a handful of episodes. Being a dad meant the reality was that I probably knew more about Dora and Diego. But I saw the show with fresh eyes, and I wasn't coming in with a bunch of baggage.” YearsShowsRealityEyeLawOrderCasesSawsColdDadSevenBunchLegacyEpisodesSeven YearsHandfulBaggageBeing A DadCold Case Author:Danny Pino

“I tend to write things seven times before I show them to my editor. I write them seven times, then I take them on tour, read them like a dozen times on tour, then go back to the room and rewrite, read and rewrite...

“In the stock market (as in much of life), the beginning of wisdom is admitting your ignorance. One of the many things you cannot know about stocks is exactly when they will up or go down. Over the long term, stocks generally rise at a nice pace. History shows they double in value every seven years or so. But in the short term, stocks are just plain wild. Over periods of days, weeks and months, no one has any idea what they will do. Still, nearly all investors think they are smart enough to divine such short-term movements. This hubris frequently gets them into trouble.” ThinkingKnowsYearsLongStillsIdeasEnoughShowsValuesTermNiceTroubleWeekMovementIgnoranceDivineMonthsPeriodsSmartSevenLong TermPaceInvestorsSeven YearsShort TermAdmittingHubris Author:James K.

“I'm always a little leery about doing shows where I'm not the headliner because when I first started playing in 1982 I opened for Missing Persons and got pelted for 45 minutes.
