But you've got a fine governor here, and I also know that Janet is now applying her extraordinary talents to serve our entire country as the secretary of homeland security, keeping America safe. And she's doing a great job.

但你们现在拥有另一位出色的州长。珍娜现在担任国土安全部部长,她正在用她非凡的才智服务全国,确保美国国土安全。她工作得非常出色。
Now, before I begin, I'd just like to clear the air about that little controversy everybody was talking about a few weeks back. I have to tell you, I really thought this was much ado about nothing, but I do think we all learned an important lesson.
首先,我想澄清一点,几周以来,人们一直在争论贵校是否应授予我荣誉学位,我真的觉得这有点儿小题大做,但我们都从中得到了很宝贵的教训。
I learned never again to pick another team over the Sun Devils in my NCAA brackets. It won't happen again. President Crow and the Board of Regents will soon learn about being audited by the IRS.
我得到的教训是,我再也不会在美国大学联盟锦标赛篮球队里挑一支比 Sun Devis 更厉害的球队了。这样的事情不会再发生了。克罗校长和懂事会很快因此受到国税局的审查。
Now, in all seriousness, I come here not to dispute the suggestion that I haven't yet achieved enough in my life. First of all, Michelle concurs with that assessment. She has a long list of things that I have not yet done, waiting for me when I get home.
现在,我要很严肃地告诉大家,我并不是来这儿争论业绩多寡的。首先,米歇尔就认为我做的还不够。她那儿有一大堆我还未完成的事情等着我回家做。
