$a Out beyond the limits of settled lives -- See what we all see, but think what no one else has thought -- Fanfare for the common good -- Thinking more of others than they do themselves -- Stories hiding in history's shadow -- What if? -- America works best with a level playing field -- They never let a handicap, handicap them -- Where a game is still a game and not a bottom line -- Homesick for places we've never been -- Fame is a vapor -- Playing a bad hand well over and over again.
