Quote by Dan Rather
Now, I know you expected me to say that, well, I just kick back in

Now, I know you expected me to say that, well, I just kick back in the rocking chair, fished a little bit, listened to Willie Nelson tapes and watched old baseball games on the Classic Sports network. And, tell you the truth, I have done that for maybe about five total minutes. – Dan Rather
