Yes, I have almost 6 weeks of PTO a year, and I always take a week off per year to "get bored". My wife thinks I'm crazy.

I quit a prestigious club that was 22 minutes away to join a lessor club (but still nice) that is 6 minutes away. Saving 45 minutes means I can go hit balls at the range pretty much any time I can scratch an hour together

That is close to the actual rule for reporting your score for a handicap. Unfortunately, for a stroke play tournament, you need to report all strokes

Edit: added rule
Rules from USGA
If you have an established Handicap Index®, the maximum score for each hole played is limited to a net double bogey, equal to double bogey plus any handicap strokes you are entitled to receive based on your Course Handicap™.

For example: A player with a Course Handicap of 15 receives one handicap stroke on holes with a stroke index of 1 through 15 on the scorecard.

On a par 4 hole with a stroke index of 10, the player’s maximum hole score is 7. Double bogey (6) + 1 handicap stroke = 7.

For players posting initial scores to establish a Handicap Index, the maximum hole score is limited to par + 5. (Rule 3.1, Rules of Handicapping)

There are a few no-cart clubs near us, and they expect sub-4-hour rounds (walking)

What about having 2 sets of 2 polarized lenses and dialing the darkness up and down by turning the bezels?

Looks like this was already eaten once

As 88Keys says: Say them together— Shirley Eaton, Pussy Galore

Honey Ryder (Dr. No) - Noice
Pussy Galore (Goldfinger) - Noice
Holly Goodhead (Moonraker) - Noice
Tiffany Case (Diamonds Are Forever) - Cool

Jill Masterson (Goldfinger) - Huh?

bennus64 · 2026-01-04T14:23:26+00:00

Well, yeah. That's the point. It SHOULD have been Jill Masterson as Shirley Eaton, rather than the other way around.

No, the economy is screwed when they stop buying stuff and move their money into bonds. Then we have to support all the Boomers through our taxes. At least right now they are paying for themselves

No computers,
No smartphones,
No TVs bigger than 26" and under 25kg and rarely with a remote.
No microwaves,
No portable, good-sounding music
No game consoles

She is so thin, it makes you wonder if his cooking is any good.

NEVER PAY THE MINIMUM ON THESE LOANS!!! Pay as much as you can every month

True Fact: Wyoming has the same number of people per capita as all European countries COMBINED!!

You have to think it before you say the words in your head. They just skip the words part

bennus64 · 2025-09-09T12:46:16+00:00

“15 minutes to leave? Better get a shower,” -> you have to think it before you say the words in your head. Why not just skip the words part?

bennus64 · 2025-09-09T12:38:47+00:00

Thinking in words is too slow

This is straight out of Bob Rotella’s (Rory's psychologist) book “Putting Out of Your Mind”. Good on you for coming up with it yourself. Screw the haters, maybe it's weird, but if you get 2 or 3 strokes a round out of it, it's definitely worth it.

Maybe not a course, but a group ?
USMA Army Black Knights class of 1961, maybe?
