I wonder what Johnny Miller would say if he were watching on the day I hit a pink noodle ice ball into a pine tree and knocked down a bird's nest? The noodle caboodled into a birdie on the fly? Makes me wonder... Thanks for the laugh, Cranky!Cindy Keen Reyndershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538914807361602296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-87050660469174785342012-04-04T22:23:28.716-04:002012-04-04T22:23:28.716-04:00Excellent ending to the post!!

I suggest you audition to replace this Johnny Miller! Having a Cranky announcer would certainly be entertaining!Elhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15802843532640086060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-27329005834888001252012-04-04T22:05:36.901-04:002012-04-04T22:05:36.901-04:00Golf - a good way to ruin a nice walk!
My friends...Golf - a good way to ruin a nice walk!<br /><br />My friends took up playing golf. I lost them forever!<br /><br />Out for a stroll one day and I saw these guys out in a paddock, beating the bush with sticks. I asked them what they were doing? "Golfing" they said. Reminded me of flushing rabbits out of a thicket. Later on I met up with them again as i returned on my walk. "How did the golfing go?" I a enquired. "Great!" one said, "We won and got a trophy!" and he showed me two white balls. "All that effort", I said, "why didn't they give you the whole golf instead of just its balls!"<br /><br />I did play golf once - at St Andrews, Scotland, would you believe. Played with the retired greenkeeper. he carried a wood and a three iron, that's all. I said "How are you going to putt?" He said to me "That's what the walking stick is for!" and he showed me an old rosewood walking stick with a flat handle.<br /><br />"Are you any good at finding balls?" he asked. "Sure," I said. "Good! You get to finding a couple and we'll get this game going!"JohnDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00608216150220329902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-60880873341741098632012-04-04T17:06:22.624-04:002012-04-04T17:06:22.624-04:00In any given sport and even worse still- at work, ...In any given sport and even worse still- at work, some asshole always has to use words or phrases to sound much smarter, slick or something, than they really are. <br /><br />Epic Fail!<br /><br />They usually end up sounding like complete & utter morons instead. It would be nice if we could just kick them a good one each time they open their mouth. It would at least make me feel better.One Bad Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04139395145674594659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-79686676655401595772012-04-04T16:16:03.315-04:002012-04-04T16:16:03.315-04:00One more reason why I hate this "sport"....One more reason why I hate this "sport".
