Politically Incorrect Golf Terms

Try some of these next time you’re out on the course (courtesy of one of my league mates, with a little editing of my own). WARNING: locker room humor follows… Rock Hudson – a putt that looked straight, but wasn’t. Saddam Hussein – from one bunker into another. Yasser Arafat – butt-ugly and in the [...]

Adirondack Vacation

My wife and I just concluded four days of bliss in a little cabin on Elk Lake, in New York’s Adirondack Park. No cell coverage, no wi-fi, no real connection with the outside world–well, we did get one Yankees game score from the office, courtesy of their satellite link, but that was our single episode [...]

Fireworks Grand Finale, 2010

We’re fortunate enough to know some interesting people. One is an expert at setting up fireworks shows, and another has a large yard backed by a larger field, and the willingness to host a big Fourth of July bash.

Life before Google

Got a funny one-panel cartoon in my e-mail, and I’m going to share… So, to give credit where it’s due I followed the link at the bottom of the image, did a little searching, and found the original posting here. While you’re at it, check out more of the Shoebox Blog, it’s pretty damned funny!

Jumping on the “Avatar” Bandwagon with Both Feet

So, from what I hear there’s an explosion of videos on YouTube detailing how to paint yourself blue, and to otherwise try to look like a Na’vi character. I figured that’s lame: on one hand, you ever tried washing all that shit off when you’re done? Don’t even tell me you plan to get between [...]

On Finding Gifts for Geeks

So, Xmas is past but if you had any hard core geeks on your gift list last year I’m betting it was a royal chore finding something “suitable” for them. Tell me, honestly: where do you think that gizmo is now? My friends, I’m here to make your next foray into geek giftdom an experience [...]

Okay, guess you just have to laugh

The whole Tiger debacle has been what it is. Some people are upset, some pretend they knew it all along, some don’t give a rat’s ass, and some decide to make a funny. That’s what the fine folks over at My Dog Ate My Blog did when they posted Wood’s Wood Warrants 8 New Campaigns! [...]

Ode to a Golf Ball

In My Hand I Hold A Ball, White And Dimpled, Rather Small. Oh, How Bland It Does Appear, This Harmless Looking Little Sphere. By Its Size I Could Not Guess, The Awesome Strength It Does Possess. But Since I Fell Beneath Its Spell, I’ve Wandered Through The Fires Of Hell. My Life Has Not Been [...]
