I played yesterday with a guy who is probably single digit. After EVERY shot he cussed and complained about what went wrong. Mostly blaming himself but it was very annoying. It would have been a great relief if he had just laughed a time or two.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the great work. By the way Diet Coke is very addictive. Several years ago I found myself drinking five or 6 a day. I finally switched to Diet Dr. Pepper and I can keep it to two a day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11606874.post-1160787817822628262006-10-13T20:03:00.000-05:002006-10-13T20:03:00.000-05:00Hey JB, congrats on your 100th post.Too bad about ...Hey JB, congrats on your 100th post.<BR/><BR/>Too bad about Mr. Spit-wad. It's gotta be like crossing the Sahara when you're on a bag like his. There's enough anger and sadness in the world. Do we have to carry it onto the golf course, too?<BR/><BR/>The bit on the coffee and Diet Coke ... that's me, man.<BR/><BR/>~AGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11606874.post-1160737643689279212006-10-13T06:07:00.000-05:002006-10-13T06:07:00.000-05:00You're both right.

And then look what happened.<BR/><BR/>And Dave, that's just great. I can't tell you how many times I've laughed at a horrible shot I've had. I was playing with a friend of mine once and he kept getting so mad at himself: throwing clubs, swearing, calling deer "wankers" and the like. So finally after he got all pissy on the 9th I stood on top of one of the hills and threw my bag so it rolled most of the way down. I was sad to have to do that to my clubs, but he and the other people I was playing with got the point. Just lighten up. They started laughing and the rest of the round went so much better. Maybe I should've hucked Mr. Spit-Wad's clubs in the lake or something. At least that would've made me smile a little more out there.Tom Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11022106971991560269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11606874.post-1160728232136626492006-10-13T03:30:00.000-05:002006-10-13T03:30:00.000-05:00I've only ever seen an adder on our course, which ...I've only ever seen an adder on our course, which is on the edge of the moor. To be fair, he was more scared of me, I think, and he was running away with his tiny little legs. But if he had gone anywhere near my ball, he would have got a clubberin', Tony.<BR/><BR/>I can't imagine people not enjoying a round of golf, especially on your course, JB. Why are they out there in the first place? Also, people off handicaps in the teens and above who get mad when they hit a bad shot or miss a putt. Just look at your handicaps ... that's why the shots are there. I shagged one miles right OB into the trees the other day on a long par 3 and couldn't stop myself laughing at the crapness. Rubbish, I am. I played a proper old fashioned links course over here recently, the oldest one in the world outside of Scotland, I believe, opened in 1864, and it was the most fun I had ever had while still wearing my pants. Couldn;t stop smiling all the way round. Come to think of it, it was better than most intimate encounters I have had ... lasted longer, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11606874.post-1160719142502396372006-10-13T00:59:00.000-05:002006-10-13T00:59:00.000-05:00And it just goes to show there are some careless d...And it just goes to show there are some careless doctor's in the world... he was obviously dropped on his head at birthKiwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16657561977804187718noreply@blogger.com
