Car crapped out this morning. Pissing transmission fluid. It's a 2012, no warning, about a 15 minute span between first strange sounds and warning lights coming on. No work today. Wonder if I can get my golf bag on a bicycle.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Hopefully it's under warranty. Trans jobs can be expensive. :bugout:

Better ****ing be under warranty. Car is only 2 years old. Might just be a busted hose or seal.

@MS256 - At least they are on the outside of your house.

http://rare.us/story/woman-rarely-went-into-a-room-in-her-home-but-when-she-did-recently-she-was-in-for-a-buzzing-surprise/


Wow! Good thing she didn't have guests and tell them to just go take the spare bedroom.

At least they were in the open and easy to kill.

I stood outside for quite a while this evening after blowing dust up the pipe with my leaf blower and don't see any signs of life. I told my wife it was a little disappointing that my hornet killing fun may be over.

(She didn't see the humor since she got stung).


I bet you aren't nearly as happy about two a days being over as your players are.

(Unless they are as crazy as I was and actually like the Hell of practice).

Good luck on your upcoming season.

Thanks, and I'm sure you're right. I remember how happy I always as for school to start so two a days would be over, and how I was even more happy in college for three a days to be over!

This time of year is always a little bittersweet because as excited as I get that it's football season, it means I'm all but done golfing for the year.

Kicking back sipping Cerveza and Margaritas and hitting balls into my net.

Hope to get back on the course tomorrow morning and shoot better than I have been the last two days.

Here's a pic from yesterday's gig. The rain held off for the most part. We did have a shower come through and I figures out that I was completely under the canopy.

Very cool. How's that ankle?

It's still pretty sore. I re-injured it Friday evening chasing a dog that escaped.

That sucks. We had a dog when I was growing up that used to bolt out the door. I loved that dog, but that was never fun.

I just found out that the bar where most of our gigs were booked closed today. It's bad when a bar can't even survive.

Yeah. It's been a pretty crappy year. Of course I've said that for the last few years now.

    • Day 316 - More swings, full backswing and full finish.
    • Day 132: did some mirror work while watching TV. Worked on backswing stuff primarily. 
    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
