Striking Writers May Give Up Golf Memberships But They Keep Their Humor
A week or so ago I put up what I thought was an off topic post that showcased a video made by a writer on strike. That video got a lot of attention (not from this site) and it turns out that writer Bob Kushell actually does play golf. He was kind enough to sit [...]

Dog Stolen from a Golf Course and Stabbed!
This story just breaks my heart. Sick, sick, sick! How’s this for a merry Christmas in Hawaii? If you’ve read this blog much in the past, you know what a dog lover I am. Almost 10 months ago, I lost my own furry family member, but only after she led a long, healthy life. I [...]

Getting along with pigs
I’m still the only woman on my golf club. As I think I’ve mentioned before, there are some dissenters but they seem to have been quieted. Over the last couple years, I guess I’ve gained the respect of most. There’s one guy who was always the most annoying, the most vocal (and loud, at that) [...]

Baseball gets rid of umpires to be more like golf
In a shocking move today, Major League Baseball announced that beginning next season, they will use no umpires. The umpires weren’t planning a strike. No, this announcement comes on the heels of the Mitchell Report being released. Even though officials are refuting several names on the list of players identified to have taken steroids, the [...]

Striking writers write for YouTube instead of playing golf
Warning: this post is not about golf. A friend of mine works on the TV show “Samantha Who” and is currently out of work because of the strike. At a party over the weekend, his wife was joking with me about how much he was driving her crazy being at home all the time. She [...]

I can’t even beat Annika in my dreams!
I often dream about golf. Don’t we all? Last night’s dream was exhilarating and frustrating at the same time. Apparently, I’m an underachiever when I’m sleeping. The first part was imaginative and ambitious in that I was a good enough golfer to even be competing with Annika Sorenstam in the first place. I wasn’t a [...]

Cure your slice by squeezing breasts
Sound too good to be true? Okay, so it’s only your own breasts. This tip was submitted in the form of a comment from the glorious Golfgal on my last post. I thought it deserved full-post attention: Although everyone has their favorite cure, this really did work for me and came from Ben Hogan. He [...]

Who’s sandbagging?
Oh boy… my handicap index is headed in the WRONG direction. Yes, I actually like when it goes down, despite the title of this post. See, I want to actually be a better golfer, not win by pretending to be worse than I am. This hasn’t been a good year for either. Improvement? Ha. Winning? [...]
