More Sunday Funnies

Big John Foddrill just arrived with Jackie. Going to treat her to a round of golf. Bless him. And her. No Grace today - spending time with grandparents.

Watched some of the Indy 500 with Marty. The pre race show had a warm reception and even warmer celebration of the three woman drivers in this year's race. Makes me wonder when the PGA will be mature enough to do the same thing for those women with the skills to play golf at that level. Certainly not mature enough yet. Maybe Michelle Wie and some of these other young lady guns will both try and succeed at breaking down the gender barriers.

And, speaking of young lady guns, Young Kim won the Corning Classic.

Had a golfer from Bedford just report that there was a big young golfer out here plastering the ball, hitting it loooooong. John Fisher, the young gun in question, had just been in the clubhouse maybe fifteen minutes before telling me he might be onto something. Maybe getting things to click, to fall into place. Guess maybe they are. John has been working at it pretty steady from way back when it was still cold and miserable out here. (Secret: he desperately wants to beat his older brother who keeps collecting on bets made on the course - little brother John always has to buy the drinks.)

Hey, it's been a good weekend so far. A little rain to keep the dust down, and the temperature too. And to think we still have Monday. BTW, that's Memorial Day. Go honor the fallen (throughout the world) by making it easier for your neighbor to make it through the day.

Update 6:50pm: Hey! Ashley Judd's husband wins the 500. Wow! Haven't thought of her, or seen her, in a long time. Will have to check out her lastest movie at Netflix. (I'm happy for her - bet she was a sight to see next to her hubby on the champion's stand, or whatever they call it in racing.)
