Sunday Funnies

On Butcher-Gee Scramble

More details. Turns out Jack was paired with just a few of the neighborhood kids: Mike Swartzentruber, Brian Swartzentruber, Kelly Strawn Williams. And Kent's 15 under was good for a tie for third place but the prize went to the TJ McAtee team because TJ dropped one in the hole from the tee box at hole #18. Joe Allen told me his team was ten under after nine, took a break for something to eat, then stormed the last nine and finished at twelve under. So what was in that food, Joe?

On William Faulkner

Pam and Kevin Byron and I were in the clubhouse late yesterday afternoon passing time waiting for Junior who was taking grandkids back home (Scotland, if I remember correctly). While we were waiting we were discussing good literature and trying to come up with the names of some of the books we had read. Had a terrible time - everywhere we looked we drew blanks, especially with the most famous of William Faulkner's many novels. Turns out that would be The Sound and the Fury. Tried to remember Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird and couldn't. And then there was the popular mystery/thriller writer of the '90's and now, hmmm, what is his name? Grissom? Oh well. Get on with it, Michael. What got us started on books was a camper over to play some golf who's name was Faulkner and he even has an idea for a book. But for the moment, golf with his seven year old son with wife and two younger kids along for the ride.

On Ladies' Golf

Natalie Gulbis in the clubhouse at four under; two others with two to play also at four under - Inkster and Gustafson. Wie? Finished at +16. Ouch.

Hey! It's beautiful out there. Better get yourself to the golf course.
