-Number One Son Marty is a blogger, actually for quite some time, but just yesterday with a new post on a book he's reading.
-I very much enjoyed yesterday's golf games at Washington Country Club and found the course quite challenging. It's a little course with all sorts of ups and downs, overhanging trees, creeks and ponds, and some length - the par three 8th is a 198 yard uphill shot that takes a pretty good shot and then another on a sloping green to get close to the hole. That said, it needs a lot of grooming and the WCC guys are very hopeful that the corner has been turned and help is on the way. Two things which would have an immediate impact: cut new cups with a good cup cutter and also dress up the tee boxes. I remember the advise of a Purdue golf course expert some twelve years ago: spend your money and time first on the greens, then on the tees, then on the rest. Makes sense. Oh, I didn't like the losing part of the day. That's never fun.
-"Little guys who stand together are more likely to be seen." The last sentence of this Sun Times article about community groups getting on the sheriff for 'unjust' evictions. Brings the mortgage crisis down to real people and not just far away and hugh banking firms.
-Irish going to North Carolina this Saturday. Both teams are four and one. Don't know if that means much. From the link:
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Notre Dame will make its first appearance in the state of North Carolina in 33 years Saturday afternoon. The Irish last played in the Tar Heel state in 1975 when then unheralded sophomore quarterback Joe Montana entered the game in the fourth quarter and promptly led the Irish to a pair of scoring drives to secure a 21-14 come-from-behind victory over UNC.
What a football career he went on to have!
-Day's started; sun's arising.
