We created some chances today we should have buried, the opportunities were there. But it was the other parts of our game that cost us.

We have 40,000 visits to this emergency room yearly. We have 186 patients in the hospital today, 25 critically ill. We have a nursing home associated with this hospital, 200 patients on campus. We provide 1,000 hot meals a day to the elderly in this community,

What worked yesterday doesn't always work today.

No doubt there is a lot of overcapacity in the industry. Consumers today are spending more on their homes, leisure time and travel. Spending on soft goods like clothes and shoes has decreased.

I think that what we're hearing from consumers today is that not only do fad diets not work, they're really just a recipe for failure.

I'm ecstatic that they didn't eliminate the position today.
