Sorry I've technically had covid twice.   No I'm not getting vaxxed.  It is idiotic, it is a flu shot.  My covid experience was a headache.  No worries,people.  If I was 70 and obese I'd probably get the vax.

You read about people like this and wonder if they actually exist in real life.  

Imagine thinking you know more than the people who actually do know because some halfwit send you a link to a Youtube video  that touts some nonsense that was debunked a year ago and calling that "research". The hundreds of thousand of people who died probably had a headache too.

Nice Zip... you nailed that one!

Yep that is the joke.  People trust scientists, because they are too dense to think for themselves.

OMG, did you actually say that?!

So my babysitter says she can design and build a bridge over the mighty Columbia River.

And a trained, experienced and respected engineer says she can build a bridge over the Columbia River.

Guess who's bridge I'm going to drive on?

Kinda weird how the amount of medical deaths per year haven't increased. I'm glad covid has gotten rid of cancer and the flu.  

Umm... you need to read some stats. 

Total Deaths in USA
2018 - 2.839 million
2019 - 2.854 million
2020 - 3.358 million

When we had 26K increase from 2018 to 2019, we had a 500K increase from 2019 to 2020. 

Age related deaths increased by 16% from 2019, but COVID accounted for most of that.

And a typo that was corrected within a couple of minutes of being typed trumps a person who thinks that people only trust scientists because they are "too dense" think for themselves.

You are saying that a heart surgeon shouldn't waste time treating patients who haven't bothered to research their condition and heal themselves. You are a complete and utter fool.

I trust people who should know over people who don't know.  Like you.

I trust people, who know what I don't know, even when they don't know what I might or might not know.  Even when they admit what they know isn't what they know or might know.

I'm guessing you don't trust a teaching pro to give you golf lessons.  Because you already know more about the golf swing than he or she does...

And BTW, there's no comma between people and who.

Are you a heart surgeon?  If so I'd love to hear your thoughts on that type of surgery.  If not, you are just talking trash.  Also I haven't insulted anyone's character, while you have.  That is a sign of low character and intelligence.

False Hopes, on behalf of everyone trying to stay alive during this pandemic, we can't wait you to be 70 and obese.

I'm genuinely confused.  What is this supposed to mean?

You said this:

That makes you objectively stupid, ignorant, and lacking in character

You have insulted the character of people who aren't anti-vax morons by saying that they can't think for themselves and imply that they are compliant, obedient sheep. You are pretty much the definition of a fool.

You said earlier you'd probably get vaccinated if you were 70 and obese.  Short memory there, pal.

How do you reconcile your mis- information with the fact that many hospitals have had to add capacity to their morgues?

    • First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.
    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
