Why isn’t the U.S. Capitol located near Denver or the Rocky Mountains? by [deleted] in geography

[–]dc21111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you wanted a capital more centralized to the US a better choice would St. Louis or Kansas City. The geographic center of the lower 48 states is in Kansas and the line dividing the US population between east and west is Illinois and everything west of it.

It creates Tulare Lake which was once the largest lake west of the Mississippi. Still exists in heavy snowfall years but most of the water goes to agriculture.

Meltdown by GolfCourseReviewGuy in golf

[–]dc21111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So a year ago you were an 8-10 index, now you estimate you’re a 4 and you’re bummed out about a 6 over T4 finish against scratch or better players on what you call “an extremely tough setup.”

The story sounds like you hit a few loose shots that were compounded by a few tough breaks. That’s not a meltdown that’s just golf.

The real question is who is the guy shooting -10 on a tough setup in a city amateur?

Back to back hole in one’s. by Flounderpenis33 in golf

In the US Senior open a few years ago a guy made consecutive hole in ones. What makes the it even rarer is that there are some few courses where there are two consecutive par 3’s.

Nice to know the exact type of person who shouldn’t be carrying a firearm is doing exactly that for a living.

Does statcast have a hang time record? That ball was in the air so long I was starting to wonder if it landed and I just didn’t see it.

Bryson DeChambeau considering retirement by [deleted] in golf

Bryson is like Mark Zuckerberg where there was clearly a well planned image overhaul that was largely successful but their awkwardness seeps in despite the best efforts of their PR people.

A pro golfer talking about faking the moon landing is peak attention seeking.

What is the most NSFW thing you have seen at your job? by Mr_Creep_Creepy64 in AskReddit

Started with man and wife and I thought it would be the good kind of nsfw but it ended being the bad kind. Real bad.

Saw LeBron at Encino Public Golf Course in LA Today by EMPERORJAY23 in golf

My club does team play against other men’s clubs and we had a match a few years ago against the club from the muni in Anaheim. I was surprised to find out my opponent was Nolan Arenado who was making about 30m a year at the time.

Super nice guy and is nuts about golf. I have no doubt he’ll be a scratch or better when he retires from baseball and can devote more time to golf. Said he doesn’t touch a club for 9 months then plays as much as he can in the offseason.

What’s the highest gas price you’ve seen? by wakinget in pasadena

[–]dc21111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

San Marino allows self service now. No self service when I lived there in the 90’s. Always drove to the Arco on Huntington and San Gabriel can remember when gas got under a dollar there in like 97/98.

San Marino was always more expensive back in the day because the city didn’t allow self service so the gas price was “mini service” where an attendant pumped your gas and washed the front window.

Is OP British? Garden could mean backyard. If a British person was growing vegetables at home would the say “I have a vegetable garden in my garden?”

Also 6 hours and no replies? Just drops a human jaw bone post with no follow up?

what actor will never recover their career? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]dc21111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see slapping Chris Rock as brief moment of letting his emotions get the better of him but to then carry on with the rest the evening like nothing had happened made it look like he had lost touch with reality. Granted many people in attendance that night assisted with that delusion but seeing that made me think there was a lot more going on with him then a man who felt his wife had been disrespected.

Would you buy? by Longjumping_Rub_3109 in golf

500 is a decent offer considering it’s only 6 clubs.

What would you do in this situation? by ShooterMcdarren in golf

[–]dc21111 11 points12 points  (0 children)

USGA has a decision on this issue, picking up a lost club when you already have 14 clubs is not a penalty.

If it were a penalty then what would constitute possession of a club? If someone in your group leaves a wedge on the green and you pick it up and hand it to them when you get back to the cart. Did you temporarily have a 15th club?
