Funny….few weeks ago I go to the liquor store, then home. Couple hours later I go to pick up takeout, en route, no wallet. ☠️ Call home, the missus tells me “no wallet here.”

 

I get a call from a phone # I don’t recognize, but I decide to answer. It’s the local police 👮 telling me the wallet had been picked up in the parking lot, brought inside to the general manager of the Wine & Liquor Warehouse, and if I could identify myself he’d be happy to return it. 
 

I go in and sure enough there it is, including all of the cash. 
 

I made another purchase. 😁

In LA I must have taken a tight turn on a hill with the golf cart and my $400 Leupold laser rangefinder fell out.  I go back and look where I think it may have fell out and found nothing there.  I wait around in the shop for a bit and ask some staff if they'd seen it, and they said a guy found it and let them know.  10 minutes later I meet the guy and he returned it to me.  I offered $20 for a meal or drink but he declined.

 

Wherever you are today, thanks Mike!  Never forgot that name after 10 or so years.

If you are a male of a certain age, Hulk Hogan was a big deal. He was one of those people who you felt would always be there. I wish I could have stayed that naive kid and never learned what he was really like. But I think that goes for most of our heroes. 

 

Bunch of my friends loved pro wrestling.

 

I thought it was idiotic 🤣

 

But I thought Undertaker was pretty good! 
 

Hogan was an 80s icon though, up three with like Stallone and Arnold.

With you on “idiotic”. An exhibition, not a sport. 
I’ve said in the past here. I laugh when someone like John Cena is on a talk show and they congratulate him for winning the WW whatever it is now “championship”… Uh, that’s just how the writers wrote it, but thanks.
Be like congratulating Will Smith for saving the world bcs of ‘Independence Day’. 😂

I can see little kids being into it. Not knowing it’s not real… But to think adults are into it and actually attend events, kinda blows my mind. Makes me think they must be like…

Loony Tunes was once a daily thing but i've haven't seen any of it in decades. Great stuff. South Park & Sponge Bob fill that void. Ren & Stempy used to love that one too.

He was arrested for having an outside-in golf swing.  You know who you are out there, be aware.

Back from Scotland!

 

Booked 5 rounds in 6 days and wow, the one day off was the day it was pouring rain.  We were inside doing a whisky tour and enjoying the samples.  All the golf days had delightful weather, and the rain held off until well after the rounds in some evenings.

 

Flights were delayed and our luggage went missing, so we had to rent clubs for the first day.  Didn’t get my clubs until day 2 and the big suitcase until day 5 so I had to buy pro shop clothing, handwashing stuff, or reuse certain clothing from my carry-on.  The airlines better pay me back for going through that.

 

The courses were mystical, lots of rolling terrain.  Courses were fair, grass wasn’t super long except at Pamure so you could advance the ball.  Greens were pretty slow, otherwise the wind could blow the ball off the green.  Caddies were either college students or middle aged folks who moved on from their first careers.  Just regular folks working for a living.

Had a splitting headache at the Old Course, but at least I piped my drives on #1 and #17 and got a birdie on the par 3 #8 after sticking a 6 iron to six feet.  Also, I hit into 5 bunkers and get out of 4/5 first try.  The 5th was because of me having to put my foot up against the front bunker wall.  Good thing I’m a good bunker player and can lift it out high and quickly.  Playing partner took 5 to get out of one of them.
 

Best round shot was at Carnoustie because the rough was pretty short and they had some preconceived ideas about a 12 and 15 handicap’s driving ability (us).  We were bombing most drives over the fairway bunkers from the 6100 yard tees.  I could even speculate desert golf is tougher than Scottish golf due to all the desert almost always costing a shot to get out or taking a point of entry penalty.  Like the equivalent of hitting into gorse, but there wasn’t always a whole lot of that so balls could usually be advanced towards the hole.

 

Kingsbarns was awesome with all the seaside views.  What a fun, great course to end the trip on.
