I'll start off by saying I'm not fond of cats. Unfortunately my wife has one. We are in the process of moving and decided to get the dogs' shots up to date before leaving. As I was walking out the door to go to the vet my wife mentioned to ask about some anxiety pills for the cat. Since we are moving I assumed it was for the three hour drive the cat would have to "endure" (oh the poor thing ).

When I returned home with the four tiny pills the vet said should sedate the cat for the trip my wife informed me it wasn't just for the trip but for the cat all of the time. It turns out she thinks little ol' fluffy is suffering from anxiety. I'm thinking what in the wide world of sports is going on here? The CAT needs PILLS? How can you tell a cat has anxiety? It doesn't have the same spunk as it licks its hind end or something? It doesn’t rake a fresh duce in the litter box with as much pizzazz? I mean, come on, IT'S A CAT!!!!

So now Fluffy is on meds. To be honest he does seem a little different this evening. He seems like he’s just chilling out now. I think he's probably high on whatever concoction they gave him. I'm wondering if he's going to raid the Cheetos later this evening in a hunger attack.

Damn cats!

It's probably just as much for the new house as it is for the car ride. I know when I moved, both of my cats were freaked. Cats go a little nuts when they are in a new environment.

I don't like cats, but never want to see one die. Sorry about the loss.

My thoughts exactly on anxiety, what in the world? Maybe his job is too stressful? Tough boss? Bad commute? Marital problems? The economy? Good grief! How hard can it be to be a cat! Eat, sleep, lick rear end, pee in litter box, chew on wife's plants, repeat!

Actually, the wife says the cat has been "suffering" for a while now. I guess the pills are a good thing because the move could just put the cat over the top

Last time I checked, licking a rear end (or atleast, licking your OWN rear end that is) isn't very good!

Wow. Xanax for kitties, who woulda thunk it?

My cat has endured about 6 moves with me in her 15 year life, and she's still ticking along just fine. Some nights she wants to be loved on, other nights she wants to pounce and play; no junebug can escape her wrath should it get into the house. :evil laugh:

No, but I'll trade the cat for a couple of boxes of golf balls

I'll throw in the pills the cat is on for free too!!!

      ShotScope LM1 ($200 Launch Monitor/Speed Radar)

      I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      By Shindig · Posted

      Well, this is interesting.  I think we discovered a few months ago that I haven't been following professional golf in a while (my confusion about Scotty's footwork confirmed that), so at least as I aim to follow a bit more I'll get something new to learn with all of you.  My very quick read of Erik's summary makes me think this new Challenger series fits somewhere between Korn Ferry and the Championship (not Champions, but I know I'm going to make that mistake a few times if I'm not careful!).   My recollection is that there were already second-tier events among the PGA Tour;  the Bob Hope didn't have the same quality of field as the event at Riviera (whose current name I forget, although now that I say that, I realize the Palm Springs event hasn't been called the Bob Hope in a few years either).   With the absence of the FedEx (if I'm reading that correctly), does that mean no more FedEx Cup at all? Hopefully I'll have time later in 2026 to sit down and see what we're in for in 2027, where one of my goals already is to follow more professional golf.

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      The highlights as I see them: Championship and Challenger Series The creation of the PGA Tour and the PGB Tour, in the words of Joel Dahmen a few years ago. They're calling them the Championship Series (23-24 events) and the Challenger Series (20+ events). Both run February to August. They feel this will achieve three things: increasing the consistency and quality of fields across the season creating a clear system for players to earn and retain status and delivering a more structured and competitive experience for fans and partners—all in an effort to strengthen meritocracy. Championship Series Structure and Eligibility The 23-24 events includes the Players, majors, season-ending events, and the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. These will be 72-hole events with a 36-hole cut to the top 65 and ties and purses of $20M+. 120 players without an alternate list. 90 players (roughly) from the previous year and 20 players promoted from the Challenger Series. Full eligibility will be finalized later this year. Sites (cities) to be finalized soon, but 10 of the 15 courses have already been determined. Postseason: includes retention and relegation and concludes with match play. The Tour Championship will also be played across a rotation of prestigious courses. Challenger Series Structure and Eligibility 20+ events. Running concurrently. Will feature players fighting their way back to the Championship Series or players graduating and on the upswing from the Korn Ferry Tour. Many of these events will be current PGA Tour courses. About 7 of the Challenger Series events will be during off weeks for the Championship Series with elevated purses and visibility. Purses of at least $4M, with cuts similar to the Champ series. 144 player fields. Competitive Fields for Both Series Players will be eligible for only one series at a time: Championship Series Players are not eligible for Challenger Series events. Championship Series members will have a known schedule with all events having the same eligibility. Players and Majors will have their own eligibility criteria. Championship Series players don't have to play all events. This begs the question about, say, the Canadian Open, and other "home-town" events that players might want to play, even if they're Challenger Series events. Will releases be granted? Promotion and Relegation At least 90 players will be retained in the Championship Series, and 20 players will be promoted from the Challenger Series each year. Battlefield promotion for two-time winners from the Challenger Series. Players relegated from the Championship Series will have a "last chance" opportunity to retain status, or will go to the Challenger Series. Criteria will be finalized before the start of the 2027 season. Points System New points system (not FedExCup points). Separate points systems for the Championship and Challenger Series. Elevated points in the Challenger Series for off-weeks on the Championship Series. More details tk. Elevated International Events in the Fall The fall schedule will include a limited series of elevated international events with top players from the Championship Series, with the intent to deliver in partnership with the DP World Tour as part of the Strategic Alliance. Last Chance Series The Tour will develop a “last chance” series of 4-6 events in the fall, with a limited number of spots on the Championship Series available for top finishers. Eligibility will include players relegated from the Championship Series, Challenger Series players, and other categories to be determined. Q-School continues, as do the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Also, Brian Rolapp is the new commissioner as of January 1, 2027.
