    It's a response to a statement you believe is untrue. More specifically, one that was told to get an emotional reaction from you. We can't go to the concert because I lost our tickets. If you wash the dishes, I'll give you a thousand dollars.

    How are you? I just wanted to let you know that last week I got a new job. I'll be working in the computer department for a company that makes software for the healthcare industry. I really like the wages and the hours work great for me. Because of the new job I've moved near you and thought I might visit. If that works for you, I'll write soon and let you know when I'll be in town.

    In my opinion. There are very few activities where success is predetermined by a physical characteristic. Individual limits have to be discovered and then explored by each person. If you accept someone else's definition of who you are and never challenge it, then you've given away control of who and what you are. Here's a "fact" most people wouldn't argue with; you have to be tall to play professional basketball. If Earl Boykins, who is 5'5", had accepted that he wouldn't have ever played in the NBA. So, what I'm saying is, even though, you might find that in general most men are more successful than most women at something, that doesn't give you an excuse to give up. Or even worse, to never try.

    Another way this term is used is: "I graduated from LaSalle University." "Well, then you're in good company with many other talented engineers."

    To hustle means to be aggressive. So "hustling on balls" would mean to aggressively go after the balls. ". . . blaming them for not putting forth their best effort."

    "Might" is the past tense of "may". I might be late. I may be late. Both are correct. "Might" is also used to show less possibility of something happening than using "may" would. I might finish that assignment tonight, even though, I can't find my notes. I may finish that assignment tonight since I got so much done yesterday. Using "may" also shows you have permission. We asked last week and just found out we may use the car.

    Worthy and deserve are very similar but deserve also implies entitlement. So, although, I may think someone is good enough "worthy" of my daughter, I do not think anyone is entitled to "deserves" her.

    As far as sporting terminology goes, to choke is to fail or lose. "Clutch" describes a very important or critcal situation or a player who performs well in critical situations. The entire season came to this "clutch" throw of the ball. The coach, afraid his team would "choke" and lose the game, called in Mark Jones, his "clutch" pitcher, who usually won when he carried the game on his shoulders.

    To "tell" and to "announce" both mean you are sharing information with someone else. "Announce" implies you are sharing the information publicly. You announce the birth of a child. "Tell" is more general. You would tell someone about your day or tell a secret. It can also be used to convey that you perceived something or figured something out. " I can tell you're in a hurry."
