Miscellaneous

There have been a number of other ideas floating around in my head that I didn't have time to blog about. So, I'm going to summarize them here.

J.P. Hayes - This week, professional golfer J.P. Hayes disqualified himself from the PGA Tour's Qualifying School because he played an unapproved golf ball for 2 shots. No one ever would have known had he not called the penalty on himself. But, he did the right thing, and cost himself a shot at a Tour Card. However, his honesty should be rewarded with some good sponsor's exemptions into 10-15 tournaments. Good work J.P.!

The Auto Bailout - I was happy to see that the auto bailout didn't go through...yet anyway. Let's see what happens in a few months when George W. Bush isn't standing there with a veto pen.

NBA Basketball - The NBA season started...did anybody notice?

9-Pin No Tap Bowling - This week my bowling league did a 9-Pin No Tap event. In No Tap, 9 pins count as a strike. I affectionately refer to this as "Liberal Bowling", because it's hard to get all 10...let's just give strikes if people get 9. It's close enough! Everybody feels good about themselves, no one works as hard...it's perfect liberalism.
