I regret to tell my readers that I will not be able to play in the U.S. Open golf tournament this year, mostly because I suck. If I attempted to play in this year’s tournament, I would risk further injury to my pride, and tournament officials would escort me from the course. Also, given the condition of my swing, I would probably lose at least three dozen golf balls (and that adds up, even when you buy them at Wal-Mart).
Like millions of others, I will have to be content to watch the Open on television this year. I will resume my pursuit of Jack Nicklaus’s record if I ever improve, which is unlikely.
I have an Amazon storefront where I sell various books we have read. You might enjoy them too. They are all real books, with real pages, no batteries required.
I’m now locked out of Facebook, having attempted to log in while I was visiting Canada. Yep, that’s right. When I did this, Facebook said, “We do not recognize your computer,” and asked me to type in a scramble-text and enter my birth date. The scramble-text was not a problem. The birth date was. I had used a fake date in my profile (I don’t trust Facebook security, or anything else about Facebook) and naturally I could not remember the date I entered.
So, if you are a Facebook friend visiting my blog, hello to you, but don’t expect to see me on Facebook any time soon. I have inquired but don’t intend to go to great lengths to return.
