Golf Properties

Obama is giving this questionaire to those members of his transition team, specifically, #59

"(59) Do you or any members of your immediate family own a gun? If so, provide complete ownership and registration information. Has the registration ever lapsed? Please also describe how and by whom it is used and whether it has been the cause of any personal injuries or property damage."

First, is he asking this same quesiton about cars? Alcohol usage?
Second, giving registration information such as the serial number of your gun is a very dumb idea. You might as well give a hacker your credit card number. There is a reason you just can’t walk into the police office and ask to ‘browse’ through the gun registration files.

Further, what is ‘complete ownership information’? You bought it, you own it. What else is there? Are you expected to be able to produce a receipt? No reason to keep a recipt any more than you keep one for your golf clubs. What about if you were gifted the gun or inhereted it?

I have a pump action .22LR rifle that my Grandfather bought as a young boy during the Great Depression at an auction of a farmer who was loosing his farm. This rifle played a very important part in keeping himself and his siblings fed during the Great Depression. How do you provide ‘complete ownership information’ on that gun?

Who knows what they’re thinking, stupid anti-gun liberals anyway.

If you’ve seen me post before, you probably know that i’m a beginner golfer. On sunday, I hit the links with my friend. We had fun and i shot a 13 over on the back 9 which was a good day for me .

However when we got back to the clubhouse my mood turned immediately sour. I was confronted by the manager person, who accused my friend and I of defacing property as well as impolite behavior reguarding speed of play.
So here’s what happened:

On the 1st 9 holes, i’ll admit we were going slower than average. I think we finished in 2 1/2 hours or so. there was a group of 4 gentlemen behind us who were obviously belligerent drunk. They caught up to us on the 8th hole. we negated to let them pass, played thru the 9th.

After 9, we went to the clubhouse and bought a couple waters. The group that was behind us proceeded to the 10th. When we got back out there, after about 45 minutes, we caught up to them. We were playing good golf at the time. on the 16th, we found ourselves waiting behind them as they were chatting before teeing off.

We decided we didn’t want to place them in the same predicament, so we just elected to skip the 16th.

Somehow, on the 18th, they caught back up. It was one of my last shots of the day. An approach shot from about 60 yds. I took a practice swing, taking a small divot. The other group, now behind, informed me to replace the divot. I did. My friend and I putted, then headed back to the clubhouse, where the confrontation with the manager occured.

Q1. Were we in the wrong to neglect them the opportunity to play the 9th hole before us?

Q2. Is it ever a breach of etiquette to skip a hole rather than wait for the group ahead?

Q3. Obviously, some jackass from the group behind called the clubhouse, because the manager made a direct statement about me tearing up the fairway on the 18th. So on an approach shot, should you take your practice swing w/o a divot? Was the man in the group behind in the wrong for calling the clubhouse about an error that i fixed?
Clarification: We didn’t spend 45 minutes @ the turn. What i meant was that 45 minutes after the turn, we caught back up to them.
Clarification #2: they did hit at us. They did aim at us. 1 of their drives hit off a hill and drilled my friend in the back of the head. So maybe now you can see why we did take our time.

Q1. Yes. You let faster groups play through whenever possible. If you knew they were waiting, you should have waved them up. If you played in 2 1/2 hours, then you were playing VERY slow, ESPECIALLY if you were a twosome. If you got caught by a drunk foursome, then you must have been playing slow on purpose (hitting extra balls; reputting; etc.). If you’re out practicing, then fine, but let others play through. If you’re looking for a lost ball and there is a group behind you, let them play through while you’re looking. And, as you said, they caught you on the 8th so it’s not like you were already on 9 and making the turn.

Q2. It can be a breach of etiquette to skip a hole IF it affects other people’s play. Otherwise, I’d say no. But if you skipped up and within a hole the other guys are waiting again, you’re an ass. You already know you play ridiculously slow so why would you even attempt it? Maybe if you skipped up two holes. You skipped one hole and within just one hole they were already waiting on you??

Q3. You can take a divot on a practice. That’s not the problem. But if you didn’t fix it or took 10 swings with a bunch of divots, there’s a problem. Most courses want you to sand the divots, not replace them. As long as you’re doing that, it’s probably okay. But the guys were still pissed because you jumped in front of them and then appeared to slow play them on purpose. Based on your admitted attitude on 8/9, I’d guess you probably took your sweet time finishing.

You’re lucky. If you did that to me on 18, I’d have hit into you…and maybe even aimed for you. Be glad they just called the proshop.

You should go out of your way to be extra nice when playing golf, even if others aren’t. Letting people play through is just part of golf. You let "faster groups" play through regardless of their size. The exception MIGHT be if the field is just jammed up and there is nowhere to go. If it’s a faster single or twosome behind you and the field is tight, you could even offer to combine groups and play together since it’d probably be the same pace.

And there’s NO excuse for you taking 2 1/2 hours for nine holes. You played 150m/9holes or about 17m/hole as a two some on the front and then you imply that you played 45m/6 holes or 7 1/2m/hole on the back. Something isn’t right.

Hopefully your concern about if you’re doing the right thing is genuine. If so, now you know. Otherwise, quit being an ass. Other than the divot thing, I’m glad the manager got onto you. There are a few kids at my home course that think they own the place and finally the staff suspended some of them. You might have been affecting more than just the immediate group behind you, too.

Ten Dollahs

Stumpy Grinder and his wife Martha were from Portland, Maine. Every year they went to the Portland Fair, and every year Stumpy said " Ya know Mahtha, I’d like ta get a ride in that theah aihplane."

and every year Martha would say "I know Stumpy, but that ihplane ride costs ten dollahs…. and ten dollahs is ten dollahs."

So Stumpy says " By Jeebers Mahtha, I’m 71 yeahs old, if I don’t go this time I may nevah go."

Martha replies " Stumpy, that there aihplane ride is ten dollahs…and ten dollahs is ten dollahs."

So the pilot overhears them and says " Folks, I’ll make you a deal, I’ll take you both up for a ride, if you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say ONE word, I won’t charge you, but just one word and it’s ten dollars."

They agree and up they go…. the pilot does all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word is heard, he does it one more time, still nothing… so he lands.

He turns to Stumpy as they come to a stop and says " By golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to holler out, but you didn’t."

And Stumpy replies " Well, I was gonna say something when Mahtha fell out…but ten dollahs is ten dollahs!

Maine Winters

Some engineers from the U.S.G.S. surveyed some property and found that in a area, the New Hampshire and Maine border must be changed. They stopped to inform a farmer that he was no longer in Maine, but in New Hampshire.

After a long pause, he grunted and said, "That’s good. I couldn’t take another one of these Maine winters."

The Teethbrush

Research had been going on for many years in regard to the invention of the toothbrush. Researchers knew the purpose of the device but wanted to know and acknowledge the originating location. After a very long and exasperating study, the researchers came to their conclusion about the origin of the toothbrush. It was decided that the brush was invented in Maine.

Intrigued by the discovery, the media asked the researchers how they came to this conclusion.

The researchers all agreed that it was simple deduction: "If it was invented anywhere else, it would have been called a teethbrush."

Nueva Andalucia Property -Villa for sale. Nueva Andalucia is a well thought out and attractive area just west of Marbella where, as its name suggests, the villas and apartments are based on traditional Andalusian architecture and design. The bullring on the right marks the entrance to Nueva Andalucia, while the road climbs towards the mountains affording magnificent views of the coast. On a clear day, you can even see North Africa off in the distance. Sports enthusiasts can find plenty on offer here with tennis, paddle tennis and a gymnasium. For golfers in particular, the area could not be more ideal. There are several magnificent courses within virtual putting distance, including Las Brisas, Los Naranjos, Aloha Golf and La Dama de Noche, which is floodlit for night time play. All the Nueva Andalucia golf courses are surrounded by stunning scenery with a backdrop of mountains. Nueva Andalucía is also fast becoming known for its international cuisine which ranges from a down home American deli to the ultimate in cordon bleu. It also boasts one of the most popular commercial centres in the area, Centro Plaza comprising quality shops, restaurants, bars and offices, as well as a supermarket, gymnasium and beauty parlour. In other words, this thriving commercial centre has everything that the consumer might want – from taking care of the weekly shop, to buying unusual and exquisite gifts, including carpets, antiques, luxury toiletries and, not surprisingly perhaps, everything you may need for the golfer in the family. There is also an excellent street market (”rastro”) held next to the bullring here every Saturday morning. Aside from recreational, sport and commercial facilities, Nueva Andalucía has several schools, including the international Aloha College. It is also home to one the Costa del Sol’s just two casinos, which boasts a vast gaming room as well as various other facilities. For both residents and visitors, Nueva Andalucía is ideally situated, just a few minutes drive from the glitz and glamour of Marbella and Puerto Banús, yet close to the natural beauty of the Sierra de Ronda mountain range and San Pedro Alacantara, a refreshingly unspoilt pueblo with an appeal all of its own.
