But you know the thing that I thing oftentimes gets ignored and neglected is there was 10 or 12 years of life before I met Amy and before she met me, where you know, whatever happened was probably going to happen some day.

I do not like being famous. I like being normal.
Vince Gill
I formally proposed. I'm a good Southern gentleman.
