I'm sure he advises a lot of other people on matters he knows equally little about. Nobody has objected until now?

I thought it was usually the minister's wife that made those decisions?

You should give cults a try more often . . .

That's not true - we want to let you in. You just gotta spend a little time with these guys first.

1. Sunday, April 6th - Have excellent practice in preparation for 3 separate concerts with same number of different groups in the next month.
2. Monday, April 7th - Have back infected molar removed, complete with root canal and post coming out as well.
3. Saturday, April 12 - Day number 6 of no playing at all with pain going away, very, very, slowly. Dentist says one week at least. I am thinking
more even.

It seems to me that golf commentators are like Catholic Priests dispensing marital advice: Long on theory, short on practice.

My 7 yr old can in earlier today and exclaimed, "I'm really drunk."
He had just been spinning around on the newly re-installed tire swing.

Simple answer: It is all a secret. Only those watching the golf tournament are allowed to hear what they are saying.

If you are having trouble understanding why all the whispering, actually go live to a tournament sometime. You will understand clearly then. Sure it's silly but it's historical. I actually saw Tiger raise his club as if to hit a photographer once because that little "click" disturbed his concentration. "Poor baby".

Golf is fun to play, but I can't understand why anyone would want to watch it on TV.

Playing is a lot more fun than watching. But if you can no longer play, a poor substitute is better than nothing at all. Of course I could just go practice.......................................tuba!

I don't watch ball golf. Disc golf is much more fun for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yn55M7qAhIg

I just remembered this quote. It really does say it all;

"Golf is a good walk ruined"- Mark Twain

It really is a silly game.

I don't remember laughing this hard in a long time. A great historical perspective on golf by two of the finest gold minds ever born.

DO NOT PLAY THIS CLIP WITH KIDS AROUND!!!!!!

You see...

You HAVE a ball...You know right where it is, you can easily access it, and it belongs to YOU...and THEN, you...

Seriously. You're already committed to walking to where you want the ball to go. Hitting it doesn't save you any time at all.

At least in baseball, the ball is moving, making it harder to hit. In golf, it's just sitting there!

I once had a lovely 8o ft. tall Chestnut Oak in my back yard. Now my neighbor has it, or at least he has the 60 feet closest to the top. The fork about 40 feet up is straddling his roof peak. When they built my house they put four feet of fill on the upper roots. I did find parts of four more stumps under the foliage on the bank after moving in. It was outwardly a very healthy tree which should have withstood the 40 mph gusts. It has many times before. I guess it is a miracle it has lasted these 20 years. Contractors are only worried about the first two years after the home is sold. After that it's not their problem. My last home developed a crater in the front yard which upon further inspection revealed the buried, rotted, trash from the construction. End of rant. Not however the end of my irritation.
