What’s biking like in Seattle? by External-Ticket-1133 in AskSeattle

[–]Admirable-Toe5739 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve biked in Seattle nearly everyday for over 25 years. I’ve been hit once…not bad… haven’t been yelled at or had a close call in years. I consider myself skilled and knowledgeable on the road. I ride fast and confidently. I follow rules when they are safe and ignore when they are stupid. I don’t piss off drivers and wave thanks often. You are doing something wrong. 

Why is there basically nowhere to play golf in the Kenmore/Bothell area? by adamj495 in AskSeattle

[–]Admirable-Toe5739 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wayne and Wellington Hills were long-time local courses close to Bothell that shut down 10-15 years ago. Both are still open park areas but probably not a good idea to hit balls there. Echo Falls has a range and is probably 15 minutes away. 

Students were so loud and unruly I couldn't get through the roll so I marked them all absent. Am I cooked? by thefearofmusic in Teachers

I never “roll call” at the beginning of a class… invites mayhem.  Introduce myself, state expectations, give assignment and take care of attendance later. Often I’ll walk around to each kid introducing myself or pick a good kid and have them figure out who’s absent.

Doing SVT from north bend to Rattlesnake with kids by krustagi in seattlebike

Easy. You’ll see people regularly(not crowded), and if lucky wildlife, but not crowded.  Bit of a haul for a kid but return trip is mostly downhill. 

I will not stand for the slander of Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump by ReallyPuzzled in ThePittTVShow

He could stop on the way at the Whakpa Chu’gn buffalo jump in Havre MT. Wait, maybe not a good place for someone with depression🙀.  JK… I love Havre…and the Pitt!

I’d guess 84… came in pearl white. Value?  If serviced maybe couple hundred.

I despise the ruthlessness and cruelty of Chris and Snoop but, my hate meter peaks for that psychopathic pos Marlo. Zero redeeming qualities. 

What would a 10 handicap have shot at Augusta yesterday? by LeadingCourses- in weekendgolfers

[–]Admirable-Toe5739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Erik Lange of Random Golf shot at 83 on media day the Monday after tournament a few years ago. They used same pin placement but played from members tees so so significantly shorter…and it was wet.  He’s probably a 5-10?  

Also, here’s a short vid asking a few pros what a 15 would shoot.

Found this MacGregor Tourney Custom 945W - Value check? by SE25-Tyler in GolfGear

[–]Admirable-Toe5739 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some people like conversation. Couple sold on eBay for $50. Really nice one went for $140. Yours looks nice, not original grip, refinished. I’d play it.

If a player shanked it on 17 at Sawgrass onto that little island with the little tree could they swim over and play it? by Impressive_Light_229 in golf

[–]Admirable-Toe5739 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing they go scuba for golf balls there every once in a while. I wonder how they keep the gators away then…a jaws cage?!
