I swam in the ocean, today.

Been something I've been meaning to do since I got back. It was beautifully cold. Then I tried to walk around the seawall, still in my trunks. And those trunks still chafe; you'd have thought I'd a learned when I walked the whole beach in Manzanillo. Nope.

I like my buddies from west Texas. I liked them when I was young, I liked them when I was middle-age, I liked them before I was president, and I like them during president, and I like them after president.

—George W. Bush
