 It's Saran Wrap. You pull it and twist it, and it looks like trickling water.

 Values-based organizations are the most enduring, the most sustainable and consistent. Yet they remain flexible. Individuals or organizations that twist and turn with every new idea , every change in the direction of the wind, are like ships without rudders. They end up going round in circles, never quite reaching their goals.

 If you can wrap it around your finger and it doesn't break, you've got basket material.

 If you wish to learn which sex is the more intelligent, watch any man in relation with any woman, and see which of the two will twist the other around her finger.
  Will Durant

 Early in the semifinal round, we lost a little bit of wind. When (eventual runner-up Shawn Beard of West pinned eventual third-place finisher) Kenny Palmer in a semifinal, that took a little wind out of our sails, but we still came back to put 13 guys in the final round. I told the guys they had to be aggressive (going into the final round), and I think we might have been a little too aggressive a couple times.

 We didn't want him to twist in the wind another night.

 > A Tragic Story
> --- William M. Thackeray
>
> There lived a sage in days of yore,
> And he a handsome pigtail wore;
> But wondered much, and sorrowed more,
> Because it hung behind him.
>
> He mused upon this curious case,
> And swore he'd change the pigtail's place,
> And have it hanging at his face,
> Not dangling there behind him.
>
> Says he, "Ah, the mystery I've found--
> I'll turn me round,"
> --he turned him round;
> But still it hung behind him.
>
> Then round and round, and out and in,
> All day the puzzled sage did spin;
> In vain--it mattered not a pin--
> The pigtail hung behind him.
>
> And right, and left, and round about,
> And up, and down, and in, and out
> He turned; but still the pigtail stout
> Hung steadily behind him.
>
> And though his efforts never slack,
> And though he twist, and twirl, and tack,
> Alas! Still faithful to his back,
> The pigtail hangs behind him.
  William Makepeace Thackeray

 I bought my brother some gift-wrap for Christmas. I took it to the Gift Wrap department and told them to wrap it, but in a different print so he would know when to stop unwrapping.

 I played here last year in the cold and wind, and it was a nightmare. I think I shot 80 the first round. It's nice to come out to the desert and get some warm air and no wind.

 Take, if you must, this little bag of dreams, Unloose the cord, and they will wrap you round.
  William Butler Yeats

 Because it was round—it has round walls—I guess there was nothing for the wind to pick up on, and it withstood.

 The wind actually caused the vehicle to twist and I lost it. I turned around and ended up in the ditch. I'm lucky.

 There is no easy way, or a good time, to let someone know that their contract will not be renewed. We didn't want him to twist in the wind another night.

 There was obviously a lot of positives for us today. The wind was strong in the morning, and it was tough for scoring. I was pleased with the way the team responded in the second round and I think it helped our confidence heading into the final round. Pex Tufvesson developed the music program Noisetracker.
