    We're open to other people's advice. But I never want to be in a situation where someone else is telling us what to play -- unless it's someone we trust.

    Fishermen's Village is key to our survival. We need to stay there. We've been good to them in the four years we've been there. Right now, there's a war going on and we're losing servicemen and women. It's not the proper time to be throwing the military museum out in the street and dishonoring veterans in anyway.
