I dig golf

MoooA farmer in Germany certainly said a mouthful in 1994 when he filed a lawsuit against the owners of a neighboring golf club for what he claimed were the murders of 30 of his cows. He filed the suit after a veterinarian investigating the death of the cows found a golf ball lodged in the throat of one of the recently deceased. Further investigation led to the discovery that, all told, the 30 cows had swallowed about 2000 golf balls that had apparently strayed from the grounds of the golf course into the farmer's cow pasture.

Dead SeagullsOn the first hole of his qualifying round for the 1935 Society of One Armed Golfers'championship, J.W. Perret killed a seagull with his first approach shot. He matched the feat with his secondapproach shot as well.

Bar Chip ShotDuring an Amateur Stroke Play event in 1974, Nigel Denham hit his second shot straight intothe clubhouse where it bounced its way to the men's bar. Since it was not considered out of bounds, Denhamopened a window and pitched the ball from the bar onto the green, 12 feet from the hole.

Heavy Armor:In 1912, Harry Dearth played a match at Bushey Hall in England while wearing a completesuite of heavy armor. He lost the match.

Broken Shaft:In 1951, Edward Harrison was playing at the Inglewood Country Club in Seattle, when theshaft of his driver broke and pierced his groin. He staggered 100 yards before he collapsed and bled to death.

Dead CowsIn 1934, the pro at St. Margaret's-at-Cliffe Golf Club in England struck a cow on the back ofthe head with his tee shot on the 18th hole. The cow died instantly.

A German TouristSupposedly on a golf holiday to England shows up at customs with his golf bag. While making idle chatter about golf, the customs official realizes that the tourist does not know what a "handicap" is. The customs official asks the tourist to demonstrate his swing, which he does--backward! A substantial amount of narcotics was found in the golf bag.

Nice Shot!When Neville Rowlanson, 56, teed off on the first hole at a golf course in Suffolk, England, his drive deflected off a marker in front of the tee. The ball then caromed to the right, went 25 yards, struck the pin on the 18th green and dropped into the cup. Golf World magazine called the feat a "course-in-one."
Only in the USA:Dale L. Larson's $41,000 trial-court award was upheld by a Wisconsin appeals court in October, which agreed with the trial court that the Indianhead golf course in Wausau was 51 percent responsible for Larson's needing nine root canals and 23 dental crowns. Larson tripped on his golf spikes and fell hard on his face on a brick path outside the clubhouse, and he argued that he wouldn't have fallen if it had been a smooth concrete sidewalk rather than a brick path. The trial court had found that only 49 percent of the accident was due to Larson's having consumed 13 drinks that evening, which left him with a blood-alcohol level of 0.28 90 minutes after the fall.

mmmmm pizza

A new Restaurant opens in calgary. On the window a sign says 'We have all food and we mean it. If you can name something we don't have,you win 1 million dollars!' A man walks by,reads the sign and says ' I'll try this' so he goes in and says, 'can I have caterpillar legs on rye bread?' They say coming right up. The next day he goes in determined and says 'Can I have worms in my spaghetti?' They say 'coming right up!' So he tries and tries about 9 more times. Still no one has won the money. The 10th time he walks in and says,' Can I have elephant ears on white bread?' they say.....'of course! theres no stopping you is there....coming right up!' About 10 minutes later the waiter comes with the money. The man said 'I thought you had it!?!' The waiter said 'we had the elephant ears, but we ran out of white bread!'

air tool galore

Today I'm going to Saskatoon I'm going to Saskatoon to pick up and air compressor this is a huge air compressor this is the kind of air compressor that can run any air tools there are. This is cool because not only will I have the ability to operate air tools but also because I am going with my father. My father is one of my best friends we have always spent ample time together and a trip like this is something we both look forward to this is the kind of trip where chips get bought, pop gets drunk the liquid, kind not my father and we spent six hours together just talking!
Two years ago I went to Ontario to drive back with my father my mother flew and we loaded up all of their belongings and drove together for four days throughout my life I have heard people dread spending extended periods of time with their parents this has never been the case with me I have always enjoyed spending time with my parents. We have a good time we talked we laugh and we do fun stuff.
I am now a place in life where I look at my own son and Holcomb that he is and my relationship will be as good as my father's relationship with me at youth group ideal with a guy whose father left him a when he was about three years old he is now 16 years old and is just entering a really cool part in life this is the time when he is choosing whether or not he will go to college what college she will go to whether or not he will buy a car what kind of car to buy should he buy a truck he's also making major personality changes he is no longer a little boy but he is becoming a man he is beginning to generate the opinions about things he has realized he needs to be able to back up those opinions these learning how to treat women he's learning that 16 year old girls are no longer little girls these learning that he cannot get away with all the things he used to get away with he is at a very interesting time in his life and his father is missing it all I look at my son and can't wait for the time when he is discovering these things I think it will be huge fun to watch him go through this and assuming he is willing go through these things with him some fathers missed this stuff mine didn't and I won't
anyway today I'm off to Saskatoon I promise you a few things nothing good for us will happen and we will likely be deeply engrossed in some sort of mindless media made of vegetarians of this world goes stark raving mad mwa har har har har hem!

P.S. all of this post has bin done on voice recognition software
That’s right! I talked it!!

dang it!

So, i am at school today and a thought hits me……………………………….. I don’t wanna be here
So now I have a few options. I could just bolt and skip all classes perhaps take the time and perfect my milkshake ordering skills, or I could just skip some but not all and then I would be able to say I went to school for a reason, or I could just stay home and snooooooooooooooooz!! :) perhaps a U.F.O. would come and snatch me up and cart me off to some far off land! That would be groovy. Or maybe I should go to the church and work on my stuff for youth next week. I could probably get one of the Ulriksens to skip with me (be it work or class) Sometimes I can even get a small party going witch entertains everyone!!
Here is the thing!! I am married to a powerful lady and I have a son. Now, by law, i am required to have a continues about this stuff! Maybe I should go get some videos and just chill
Nope! I went to school
Sigh
Adulthood has captured me
Sigh!!
I have a 7:am meeting tomorrow that I have to drive 30 minutes to get to
Remember when you thought that homework kept you busy?
bah
