  1. As well as a friend of mine and two people in my department at work! Happy Belated Birthday!
  2. Driver - Check Woods - Check Irons - Check Wedges - Check Putters - not over my knee but have broke a few of them.... I'm pretty sure it's all out of my system now though....haven't really come close to it lately (outside of throwing a gap wedge into a pond last season). I've spent too much on clubs at this point....

  4. And another vote for Golf Pride New Decade (MC).
  5. I am currently reading The 5,000-Year Leap - A Miracle that Changed the World . This should be a required read in our high schools....surely will not be though.
  6. Working tons of overtime and paying down all debt while I can.
  7. Still working on getting my scores for my league so I can see what this actually was.... 693 last night. So disappointing. Missed a 10 pin and chopped a 3-6-10 in the first game. 202-234-257 Ya don't mean to brag then you go and brag....sheesh. lol
  8. Good point. Still wrong but I suppose that is way beside the point considering the topic... Yup I'm aware of this and have not implied anything toward Obama. Those principles (the ones that the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were penned upon) have been lost for quite some time. These things that we are seeing now have been evolving for a while. Barack Obama is our President....and I hope that he and the rest of the government can and will make this country better and stronger. However, I have never been one to accept change for change. The system as a whole, when it was set up, was not intended to work or to be in place as long as it has. It has been in place for a long time with a tweek here and a tweek there. I don't subscribe to the belief that change is always good. Change is good when it is well thought out, logical and in the end works. While this stimulus bill may work in the end, I don't believe that it has been well thought out and... to me... does not have much logic behind much of it.
  9. Hmm....I'm going to have to look into that....I don't recall ever doing that. I'd better check that I didn't get that confused with the 681 I threw earlier this year. My high game coming into this season was 280 and I know I beat that....maybe it was higher than 281....stupid beer. I was running a tournament this past weekend. Someone had thrown a 290 and a friend asked if he spared then punched out....Umm.....only one other way to throw a 290. That would be painful!
  10. Yeah, unfortunately they don't do the 298 & 299 rings any longer. http://www.bowl.com/Downloads/pdf/aw...9HighScore.pdf
  11. No. Instead you have to reference Article 23, Article 32 & Article 4 to get through Article 17. I'd think that reading War and Peace would be easier. Besides, the House voted unanimously to recommend that lawmakers and the public have at least 48 hours to read the legislation before a vote. This obviously did not happen. Why? While I agree, that doesn't mean that the time alotted shouldn't have been there. That's like saying it isn't worth teaching a kid to make his/her bed because he/she is just going to make it messy again. "A learned blockhead is a greater blockhead than an ignorant one." ~Benjamin Franklin Too busy being moderate so they can pull votes. Also, many of them buying into the idea that government has a place controlling the market. This needs to change.... The words of the founding fathers of this country are no longer being considered: "A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government." ~Thomas Jefferson "Leave no authority existing not responsible to the people." ~Thomas Jefferson "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." ~Thomas Jefferson "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both." ~Benjamin Franklin
  12. Another broken promise.... Congress received the bill (1100 pages) at 11 last night and was passed early this afternoon. Why? Because Nancy Pelosi has to go to Europe? And I am sure there are >550 pages worth of other reasons... It's estimated that it would have taken one reading (and comprehending) this bill at 640+ words per minute to have it read in time to vote on it. And that's without a piss break. So that means no coffee.... I wonder if the MicroMachine guy could have done this....?
  13. Oh wow....I'd be ticked!
  14. Are these sanctioned? Did ya get rings?
  15. 7.5° Ping G10 is on its way ....and NOW I am done spending.....(unless I get a new bag..... )
  16. Nice!!! How many games was this?
  17. 299...very nice! Oooooh....8 pin. Solid 8 pin..... "best" ball you can throw.... allegedy. Still smarts I bet. my highs are 290 (error in earlier post), 281, 280, 279, 279, 278 and on down. Have only been past the first 8 once. I always start shaking for some reason...
  18. If so, take about 50 pins off of my average....
  19. Bowling still is my primary source of recreation during the non-golf season. I bowl full time on one league and sub on another (bowled full time on both leagues up until this season...may go back to both next season). Averaging around 201 or 202 this season. I'm a better bowler than golfer but enjoy golf soooo much more. Season: High Game - 281 High Series - 691 Career: High Game - 290 High Series - 726
  20. Ugh! Went to the dome last night to hit a friends new (to him) Ping G10 7.5° driver.....I loved hitting it.............have been looking for deals on them all morning....
  21. Don't worry all of you Americans in the chattery class....you don't care.... Change you can believe in....
  22. Probably would have been busted anyway. It looks like it has a game in Washington tomorrow night.... http://panthers.nhl.com/index.html
  23. Just ordered my iGolf Neo off of eBay. I hope I'm done spending money on golf now....
  24. Unless I'm on a marathon round (>18 holes) I don't like to eat anything at the turn. If I do, it's usually just a package of peanut butter crackers or something light and simple. After my round at my home course, I enjoy a chicken salad wrap. Those things are awesome! Occasionally I'll go with one of their philly style steak sammiches or whatever may be on special.
  25. hybrid(s): 17° Rescue TP - $79 off of ebay irons: Tour Preferred 4-PW / Project-X 6.0 - ~$425 off of ebay wedge: MP-T 56° - $39 all clubs re-gripped (with Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound)for $8 ea. putter: Red X - $75 off of a friend | re-gripped with the new studio style grip for $20
