Almost done w/ House of Cards S2, one episode to go. It's like a pulp political suspense page turner, transferred to TV. The West Wing and Borgen are still my political drama favorites by a wide margin, but HoC is worth watching. Noticed Bates Hotel is on Netflix now. And Rubicon on Amazon Prime.

OK, now we have an idea where True Detective is going with the split narratives. Best episode yet.

I'm finally caught up on TD. As awesome as last episode was, I was more impressed by the six minute ending to the previous weeks episode. That must have been a bitch of scene to plan out. I'm getting a serious LOST vibe from this show right now. Where there are some clues dropped, but we still don't really know how it's going to play out. Very impressive, indeed.

I just finished the first 2 Seasons of "Hell On Wheels"..........awesome presentation of the battle to build the Railroad across the West.

It is available on Netflix..

Big Bang Theory & Family Guy are the only shows I currently watch - I'm not a big network-series guy.

Almost anything on NATGEO / HISTORY / MILITARTY / #anyinformativeprogramming - I will watch

Can't go wrong with Saved by the Bell reruns either ... I'm 29 so that's what I grew up on ...

3 timelines - 95, 02 and 12. I'm wondering if TD is going to go mystical on us.

It seems like the answer is going to be a conspiracy. The "Cohle as murder" answer is a bit too obvious, but he's got to be deep in it somehow. Also, The Americans returned last night, and remains awesome. More male rear nudity than I was hoping for though.

    • the rules have changed, but this would fall under 11.2 in the current rules.  General Penalty to any player who deliberately deflects a ball in motion, and you must replay the putt.
    • Day 250 4-29 Getting chest through with speed on downswing and wrist arch. Also worked on some moving the pelvis slightly away in the backswing. Feel like im going too fast and long, looks like it on the recordings too.
    • Interesting that it's no penalty, but then again, I can't imagine someone would purposefully put their foot out there in this situation or one like it.  And then there was the time someone purposefully deflected his own ball during a major, but that's very different too. The only time I can recall a ball I hit hitting another player or their equipment was ages ago -- over a decade and a half ago.  I had a 3' putt for an 89 and someone (a random pairing, not someone I knew) decided it was a good time for goaltending practice.  That wouldn't fall under this rule, though (and it wasn't in a tournament anyway). Thanks for continuing to share these, Dave!  I always find these interesting. 
    • Day 51 (29 Apr 26) - Worked with a few of the golf team kids plus my grandson (he’s too young for the team as it’s middle-high school age and he’ll be 10 Sat).  He put on a small hitting clinic (hitting off the same tees as the rest of the boys) - one of the older kids called him a “coach”.  Worked in a few shots for myself - had the light bag: driver, 7w, 4 - 6 - 8 - Pw - Sw (DCI 962’s except the Sw a 981) and Zebra putter….got in some great tee shots, a couple of recovery and an awesome up and down for bogie: 55 yds out, hitting 4th shot due to 2nd getting tangled in limbs - see the window I need to hit for a tight spinner with the Sw - nail it to a postage letter distance from the cup for a tap in bogie….my kind of practice. 
    • Day 21, April 29.  Before going to work this morning, I worked in my indoor practice room for 20 minutes.   This was entirely 6-iron shots with the usual step.  Video yesterday showed me that I'm still straightening my trail leg too much (leading to the backswing length issue I've been working to fix), so I focused on not doing that in my rehearsal swings.
