SUCKS FOR YOU ALL YOU SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE BLOKES!!!!

Your days are getting shorter and ours are getting longer. Warm
weather is coming to us [1] . The grass will grow and courses we'll
be able to play until midnight! You'll be cowering in your poor
pitiful parkas and begging for spring.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [2]






[1] I had better not hear a single response for all the wimps who
live in Texas, Arizona, Florida, or California where you can golf all
year around. Just shut up, ok?
[2] All posted in good fun, of course. I'm looking forward to
spring.

It wouldn't surprise me if this post comes back to bite you in about
six months.

Stone Creek drains well. So does Three Rivers in Longview (built on
Mt. St. Helens ash).
Rest....boggy, which is why I play rocks in the winter. Spin is
irrelevent.

I'm sure you and all the other Little League parents will skip work for
that one.
Is it on ESPN or can I get an internet feed somewhere? Wouldn't want
to miss that one!

It's fucking December .... shouldn't your kid be out making snowmen or
something?
Ooops, I forgot! You live in Arizona where the baseball season and the

Kids aren't in school this week silly boy, and there ain't no snow here.
We won the opener 8-4.
The summer Nationals is on ESPN 2. The winter National isn't televised.

No wimps here in the Great Wet North. A balmy 42 degrees with blue
skies. I was all set to play today, first time in 6 weeks, at noon
with my Stableford group. Couldn't wait to lose my Xmas balls. But
alas came a phone call saying that the Tee times were moved up an hour
due to frost delay. Course (Stone Creek) was implementing a shotgun
start. Guess who had appts. lined up this morning? Missed it by 10
mins.

So I took a long time gal pal out to lunch. Gossip instead of golf.

Played 16 an hour north of Pittsburgh today, it was iffy as to whether
I'd finish before dark so I skipped the uphill 9th and back down the
hill 10th. Also bowled 3 games w/ my son at lunch.

Got in 3 rounds a couple weeks ago. Global warming....it's everywhere
you want it to be.

I thought of heading out today, but the course was too busy. One group was
a group of kids...oops, age limited individuals, who were showing each
other how to golf. They are probably still out on the front 9! Gotta get
out tomorrow though, it's going to rain saturday.

It's 56 here right now -- so it is likely even nicer where you are --

I'm at work but one of my "ex" buddies just called to say he had 2 birdies
so far & they both were skins --- which was a dig at me since Wednesday I
had 3 of birdies good for no skins in a five way game....

I told my "ex" friend he was now officially out of my will...

projected to get above the freezing k for the next several weeks and
it's not fair because Yakima usually only has 2 weeks where the courses
are not open even though it may be cold but we are at least still able
to play but not this year by golly no because folks like the ones down
