Like a pitcher who gets a dead arm deep into the season, we seem to have alot of golfers with tired swings late in the year. Not alot of good scores, despite excellent conditions. One exception though was Mike Kelly who shot a 39 (15 strokes better than the week before) for a +5 and individual honors. His partner was no help though so team winners are Scott Silvia (+1) and Frank LaRosa (even). Jim Thompson continues to be on target on CTP holes like a pin-seeking missile and took the prize again at 9'. Only four birdies for the entire night and they were all worth money: Paul Raynard on 3, Dave Naimo on 5, Joe Curtis, (who's trying to keep up with the Joneses, I mean the MacNeils) on 6, and Frank, the mint, LaRosa on 8. Funny how some nights we get 16 or 18 birdies and then another night only 2 or 4. We've checked with Easton C.C. and they have assured me that the hole is the same 4 1/4" every night, so it must be us. Birdies are like women: they come in spurts.
It was great to see Bino make a reappearance. After getting chiro-clearance for his neck, now the god-damn United States Postal Service (motto: We're so far in debt that we make Bernie Madoff look solvent) is giving Johnny a hard time about taking a few hours off for golf once a week. He has to practically get a special dispensation from the Pope (civil service status: permanent Pontiff I) just to take his own vacation time. Those bastards!
And finally, for all those bad swings, hit two buckets and e-mail me in the morning.
