Sunday was the biggest day of the year in auto racing, and it produced three outstanding finishes. First, all hell breaks loose at the Monaco Grand Prix as the leaders approach a gaggle of slower cars in the closing laps. [VIDEO]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lh7oKWvCOyc[/VIDEO] Then, the leader of the Indy 500 makes a fatal error with the checkered flag in sight. [VIDEO]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZc_u2lfOeo[/VIDEO] Finally, NASCAR's longest race meets a stirring conclusions as drivers stretch their cars' fuel mileage to its limits.

The perks of attending a prestigious college: the commencement speakers are actually interesting.

Unless you get screwed like I did.  The previous few years at MIT had featured then-president Bill Clinton, then-vice-president Al Gore, then-UN secretary general Kofi Annan, and the year before (which would have been my year had I not done a 5-year bachelor/masters program) were Click and Clack from NPR's Car Talk (MIT alumni).

My year was Carly Fiorina, who for all the importance of women breaking the glass ceiling in engineering and tech companies, basically oversaw dismantling HP from an interesting company into a commodity PC and printer company.  She's not even technically minded, she's basically pure businessperson, so really didn't have much connection to MIT at all.  Sure, she was the first female Fortune 20 CEO and MIT was (and maybe still is) trying really hard to encourage women in engineering, but she was about as far from an engineer as you can get so she didn't even work as a good example. It was really lame.  But I'm not bitter or anything.......

Tanner Hall's terrible fail

My cousin is the guy holding the camera in that video. He told me that was a pretty bad day for everyone involved....

I thought this was really funny:

Also, I recently discovered the Showtime series Dexter. It's excellent, save for maybe season three, which IMO is the only bad season, even though Dexter does take up golf in season 3. Here are my favorite instrumental pieces from the show. The music on the show is great.

Totally unrelated, but this song reminds of golfing:

    • I’ve recently started KBs too and really enjoy it. I have one day of armour building complex and one day of a mobility routine. Adding in a speed training day too.    which routines do you do @Elmer
    • Again, I’m not an expert so take it with a grain of salt My question is whether laying back even further becomes too conservative and that strategy is suboptimal as a result? Essentially what’s the cost of guaranteed longer second shot vs the x% risk for hitting the bunker? I think the optimal way to answer the question is looking at strokes gained, in consideration of the hazards and penalties, and picking the strategy that maximizes SG off the tee. I’ve seen some apps that do this but I’m not sure how accurate they are.   And again, asking all this so I can learn what I should be doing in these situations rather than questioning your approach Bill. I would give an example of the course I’m joining this year where I plan to aim at the bunker, but I don’t want to take over your swing thread any further!
    • What @DeadMan said. From the satellite it looks like there's tall grass to the right, long of the fairway post-dog-leg. But left it just looks like regular rough all the way to the neighboring tee boxes. If that's true I'm aiming left edge of the green and bombs away every time, hoping for a 30-70 yard up and down opportunity.
    • What's the case against blasting a driver at the green? I'm guessing it puts the penalty area/fescue too much into play, but if that's just standard rough around the green, there would be a good case for it. If it's not driver, then I agree with your approach. The one thing I would add is to shade your aim towards the bunkers vs. center of the fairway. Hitting out of a bunker is (marginally) better than a penalty drop.
    • Yes, if you are gonna layup, then layup. No need to nickle and dime a few extra yards and bring bunker back into play.
