I'm a little tea cup . . . BM#86

Actually, SuperDave, Homer Kelley would have:

1. Described the act of lifting the tea cup directly to his lips as a Hand
Controlled Pivot;

2. Told you that the same 'tide' that was in the ocean was also in that tea
cup; and finally...

3. Would have spilled the tea himself in a deliberate, dramatic demonstration
of the Law of Hydraulics.

The truth is that Homer Kelley was one of those rare individuals who pass our
way only occasionally. He believed there were three motivators in life: love,
power and achievement. The first and last of these are manifest in The
Golfing Machine
.

It is his legacy to us.
