Danger Elbow: A Puppy Injury Tale

Alex_Demote - February 17, 2023February 16, 2023

I got my first Kai Ken in early 2014. They're a special and exceedingly rare breed of ancient Japanese hunting dog that bond very closely to their owners and otherwise don't want much to do with people. For this reason, they're very hard to re-home and breeders are very selective

Given the feedback I received from you in Volume 7, I decided to go ahead and play 18 holes in order to establish a handicap ahead of my very first tourney. I am in a situation at work where I have excess vacation time and if I don't use it, I

As you may remember from Volume 6, I tried the TopTracer setup at the Alhambra Golf Course and thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I did not get enough shots on certain clubs to do a real good analysis for every club I use. So I went back. I am happy to report that

Self-Immolation is Overrated

I drove 4 hours south of home on Monday, back to the office that I used to commute to daily and have since moved away from thanks to my position transitioning to full-time remote. We're going through an acquisition and their people wanted to understand work that I used to

As you may remember from Volume 5, I wanted to try the TopTracer setup at the Alhambra Golf Course. On a lazy Saturday, I decided to head back and try my luck. This time, the range was open and I was happy to see there were several bays available. When I

It was supposed to rain all day but the atmospheric river must have run dry as it was nice and sunny around noon. Feeling antsy and having planned nothing, I figured I'd go to the range and get some practice in. I had discovered that the Alhambra Golf Course had

On a whim, I decided to head to my local 9 Hole golf course to see if I could get on. It was a cloudy and cold day, so I figured not too many people would be out. I figured if I got on, cool, and, if not, I could

I was looking up tee times at one of my local courses for Thanksgiving Day when I found one for pretty cheap that included a cart. The only problem was that there were only 2 spots available. That means there were already two people playing at that same time. Very much like

One late morning last week, seated in my motor-carriage and travelling to-wards a local restaurant in search of sustenance to break the night’s fast, I spotted a chunk of slush in the roadway. It being almost directly in my tire’s path I decided that the best slush is mushed slush

My 900th Post

ballsofsteelandfury - January 9, 2023January 8, 2023

I can't believe I've actually made it to 900! That's something Houston cannot say. I've thought long and hard about what to put into this post and I've decided I've got nothing. I thought about doing a post talking about the past and my favourite posts but I'm not really

Boots on the Ground: The Crazy House! Part 2

DETOX, SUICIDE WATCH, AND "WELCOME TO CAT 5" Unfortunately, this is the portion of my journey I am the most unfamiliar with for a variety of reasons, so my recollections will be recounted to you as they exist in my head; in brief snatches experienced in varying degrees of lucidity. Thank

It was 7 AM on a Sunday morning and I was headed to Palm Springs to play in a tournament. Tee time was at 10 and I wanted to get there early to properly warm up. The beautiful thing about driving east on a Sunday morning is that you can
