The U.S. army confirmed that it gave a lucrative fire fighting contract in Iraq to the firm once run by the Vice President Dick Cheney without any competitive bidding. When asked if this could be conceived as Cheney's friends profiting from the war the spokesman said 'Yes.'

The people of Wisconsin have been good to me. I've tried to live up to their trust. And now I ask those hardworking men and women and millions like them across America to join our cause and get this country working again. When Governor Romney asked me to join the ticket I said 'Let's get this done' - and that is exactly what we're going to do.

I like women but you can't always trust them. Some of them are big liars like this one woman I met who had a dog. I asked her her dog's name and then I asked 'Does he bite?' and she said 'No.' And I said 'So how does he eat?' Liar!

I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said of course not. I said well I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

If somebody asked me about my inspiration I would say that it's not the peopleand it's not the things it's travel and experiencing different environments.

When friends asked me Can we help? I'd say Not unless you can alter time speed up the harvest or teleport me off this rock. I used that line from Star Wars.

Whether if soul did not exist time would exist or not is a question that may fairly be asked for if there cannot be someone to count there cannot be anything that can be counted so that evidently there cannot be number for number is either what has been or what can be counted.

I get along very well with the cast of '30 Rock.' I guess I bring a certain quirkiness to the show as well. I'm just thankful they keep asking me. I didn't think I was going to be asked back so every time they say 'We want you back ' I'm screaming. I'm jumping up and down and screaming.

I don't cook - I can cook - but I'm not very good. I like being asked over for dinner because she can't cook either. We would starve if it weren't for modern technology. I know how to work a microwave but love home cooked meals.
