The decision as to why a show makes it has to do with politics and money.

In January '77 I went out to LA and have been here 26 years.

And I had a lot to play, which is what you want as an actor.

One of the things I was so glad that happened to me on Knots was that I learned to relax.

I act for the reality, for the moment, and most of all I do it for the process.

I really wasn't on the Dallas set much. I did three or four episodes so I didn't see too much.

During my work there I came across some very significant issues that I started reporting in December of 2001 to the mid-level management within the FBI.

I'm projecting somewhere between 100 million and 200 million computers on the Net by the end of December 2000, and about 300 million users by that same time.

Through the small tall bathroom window the December yard is gray and scratchy, the tree calligraphic.

As for September 11, let us not too easily grant the Americans possession of that date on the calendar. Like May 1 or July 14 or December 25, September 11 may seem full of significance to some people, while to other people it is just another day.

God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.

On the 1st day of December, 1830, I was confirmed, and in accordance with the word of the Lord I was ordained an Elder under the hands of the Prophet.

Yesterday, December seventh, 1941, a date which will live in infamy, the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.

But in 1941, on December 8th, after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, my mother bought a radio and we listened to the war news. We'd not had a radio up to that time. I was born in 1934, so I was seven years of age.

We host some trips all over the world. We go to Alaska. We go to Mexico. We're going to Venezuela in December. We've been to Russia, all in conjunction with the radio show.

I've come to believe that whoever I am didn't start on December 14, 1946, and isn't going to end on whatever that mysterious date is in the future.
