given
I guess I have never been much of a complainer. You just take what is given you, and don't complain about what you can't affect.
I always could putt. Part of my makeup, I always could putt.
game
Golf is a game of ego, but it is also a game of integrity: the most important thing is you do what is right when no one is looking.
available efficiency electrical full given higher hybrids jump power provide spectrum spend time
The lower-voltage hybrids will give you better efficiency than you'd get with a conventional vehicle, but they still don't provide the power you need to do full hybridization. For that, you've got to jump to something higher at least 200V. Given the spectrum of voltages available in the electrical system, you get all the efficiency from the higher voltages, so why spend your time on the 'in-between' voltages?
courses encounter feet golfers high higher jump land retaining six
Golfers who play a lot of courses often encounter short ledges or retaining walls, and I always had fun hopping down from them. I could jump off something six feet high and land like a cat, no problem. Well, today I can't jump off anything higher than two feet without it just killing me.
spine swing violent
The golf swing is a violent swing. You twist, and your spine is under continual stress when you're making a golf swing. Your neck, your spine, your hands, your knees, everything.
bulbs burn consistent headlights tend vehicle
Your headlights and all the other bulbs in your vehicle see a very consistent voltage. You don't get the voltage spikes that tend to burn out bulbs and shorten their lives.
mayor running step viable voters
I'm running for mayor because someone has to step up and give voters a viable alternative.
gonna
I'm not gonna get it close. I'm gonna make it.
compete months winter
That's what I'm out here to do. Compete and win. It makes the winter months a whole lot better.
bumped hitters short
They've really just bumped any short hitters out of the championship consideration equation.
bumped difficult faced hitters short shots
They've really bumped any short hitters out of consideration. It's more difficult for shorter hitters. The shorter hitters are faced with a lot of improper shots into greens.
admire battles coming hit hole jack last man mean meanness treated word
I admire Jack for many things, but especially for the way he always treated our relationship. Jack was never mean in any sense of the word -- there was no meanness in him. So at St. Andrews, coming up the last hole with him, it all hit me: the kind of man he is, the battles we had, and especially, that this was the end. . . . That was very emotional.
conditions good ideal played scoring wind
The scoring conditions were ideal with no wind and I played well today. It was a good ball-striking day but I could have putted a little better.
