Volume Thirty

This week’s links are brought to you by Carl Spackler. Enjoy.

Hittin' the LinksWell, it’s almost upon us. The pinnacle of my golf season will arrive on Saturday. It’s the point in my year where I must summon the golf gods and hope that they cast good fortunes my way. That’s right, it’s almost time for the Newport Cup. It should be a ton of fun. Hopefully all the rust and dust that has gathered will be forgotten when I take my first swing.

I’m sure there will be updates, but for now, here’s the links. Oh, and don’t forget to root for the red team!

Hole 1: Great Mini-Golf Course
I’m not a fan of mini-golf, but I definitely need to take a road trip to play this course. I love the “monkey poo” hole. [link]

Hole 2: Deal Alert
Does anyone want to send me this watch for review? Or buy it for me? Christmas is coming up, plus it’s on sale. Gosh, I need one of these. [link]

Hole 3: 72 Holes, 72 hours
This is a great concept for reviewing a regions golf courses. I’ve enjoyed reading all the pieces. Check the archives for all the others, they’re worth a read. [link]

Hole 4: Poker is the New Golf
CEOs are picking up a deck of cards instead of a set of clubs. Well, I imagine they’d prefer a set of clubs in their deck of cards. Rimshot! I should be a comedian. [link]

Hole 5: If Tiger Says So
Tiger seems to think that Michelle Wie is capable of coping with being a professional golfer at such a young age. I think she’ll be just fine as long as her father doesn’t become too involved, which is destined to happened. I would put some money on there being an E! True Hollywood Story coming soon. [link]

Hole 6: Stupid Football
I got stuck watching the NFL yesterday and completely missed this playoff. I’ve been hoping to see those two match up just for funzies. Oh well, I guess I didn’t miss much. [link]

Hole 7: Yes, Please
Anyone else ready for 2006? If not, take a look at this and then answer the question! [link]

Hole 8: Confusing Headline
Does the headline, ‘Red hot Chile putter Perrot rallies past Han to win the LPGA Longs Drugs Challenge’, confuse anyone else? I think there is a play on words in there, but I’m not quite sure. [link]

Hole 9: MJ Links
MJonGolf has a couple cool links this week. One about a deaf golfer and a second about a 274 yard hole-in-one. Check them out. [link & link]
