...before preparation over spring break is completed--including long hours spent meditating on Palm Beach sands and fine tuning golf swings on some of the world's most challenging courses. Coach: Jock Hopkins Captain: Terry Murray Last Year: (0-4, 0-2) Home Meets: The Country Club The Schedule...
...stark moonscape of black lava rock with not so much as a sprig of vegetation into a 62-acre tropical garden, ringed by three towers, 1,241 rooms, seven restaurants, 75,000 sq. ft. of convention space, a 17,500-sq.-ft. health spa, 1,640 transplanted coconut-palm trees at $1,000 apiece and water everywhere else.

I suddenly remembered my doctor told me to have only two glasses a day. Usually, I'm a man of such discipline--I don't know what's happening to me. I feel a little like a rebel, like those days in the '60's when you and I were the only Republicans in Texas, and we used to joke about holding our convention in a phone booth...
