Quote of the Day:

"I'm not going to be the spoiler guy. I'm going to let everyone see it on their own, but that's all I know is the Hump under construction. Since I've arrived, it's been under construction. So, to me, it's the norm. So, I'm looking forward to the abnormal, if you will, which it'll be a finished product."
