Okay, so that guy is not him (shows you how much I pay attention to Star Wars), but I do think Luke joined the dark side.

Just saw Taylormade's Facebook post this: Ironically, the most appropriate club to hit that BB-8 droid with would be Callaway's BB 815.

This trailer totally blew me away! I was thrilled with what I saw, and it didn't give away any of the story. This trailer was all about setting up the characters, and each one had their own little ded

Harrison Ford makes surprise appearances on video conference calls to fans. This was fun. The Bristol guy digs himself a deeper hole by responding to who are you calling old by addressing Han Solo as "Mr Ford".

LOL. Love Carrie Fisher interviews. Direct and to the point. Also Kimmel asked her how do you feel about being in SW after all these years, she says, you mean how do I feel about getting old?

Quote

Carrie Fisher was recently asked for her take by The Wall Street Journal. Her response was amazing.

“The father who flipped out about [the bikini], ‘What am I going to tell my kid about why she’s in that outfit?’ Tell them that a giant slug captured me and forced me to wear that stupid outfit, and then I killed him because I didn’t like it. And then I took it off. Backstage.”

That right kids. If someone forces you to do something against your will, if they threaten your life, if they take away your agency and attempt to strip you of your dignity? Kill them.

I noticed there was new footage in some of the commercials during the thanksgiving football games, but it was mostly just the same scenes with different cuts from the scenes.

Only 8 more days (7 if you're seeing the 7/8 PM premieres)!

I can't believe these guys are already in line for the tickets.... 

I'll watch it after a couple of week later when the line isn't outrageous (hopefully).

Oh, there are no tickets left, I guarantee it. I bought my tickets to the movie back in late October and they were already very slim pickings (I had to get tickets for the 2 AM showing if I didn't want my nose to the screen on release night).

The problem is trying not to get spoiled.

Have tickets to the first showing on Thursday. Trying to figure out how early to go to get decent seats without having to spend too much time in line.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
