We have been working on this process now for about three and a half years. We have had over 250 meetings with people, our neighbors, local groups and here we were today to present you with our proposed master plan for what our vision is for Samoa and we are pretty excited about it.
I'm just not getting results. What are you going to do? Keep trucking away.
bad contribute good heard ideal impacts might move position
I don't know if this impacts me in a bad way or a good way. I heard I might move back to first, which is my ideal position because I can contribute more than just hitting.
four giving good runs
He pitched about as well as you can in this ballpark. Giving up just four runs here is a good day.
benefits convince deliver ethanol gasoline good guess half people pump sales seem town using
I'd guess the ethanol gasoline makes up probably half of all our sales. It's such a good product, we deliver a lot of it to farms. Once you convince the people in town that there are benefits to using it, they seem to go to that pump all the time.

adjusting break carry fly last mentally none pick ship time tired took veterans
It was kind of adjusting on the fly last year. There was not a lot of time to break yourself in, but our veterans were able to pick us up and carry us, or none of us would still be here the way we were going. I don't know if I was mentally tired or what, but it took me too long to adjust. My ship sunk too fast.
clutch count driven gets hit needed number seems time year
It seems like he gets the big hit every time we need them. He's been clutch when we've needed something. I can count a number of times this year when we've needed something and he's driven in runs.

It's a totally rebuilding year and we expect to take a lot of lumps.

It's good to have Huston back. He's an All-World pitcher.

It's frustrating. We don't want a bunch of trash here. We're always responsible ? make sure we clean up after ourselves.

That's definitely never happened to me. That was something else.
