Good morning, Rick.

Nice time was had yesterday but I'm exhausted today and heading to the office now. There were 14 of us around the dinner table. Lots of cleaning up to do when I get back home this evening.

Indeed. First load is done. Let's see if the kids surprise me today and do another load while I'm at work.

I'm doing what I always say not to... Keeping those expectations too high.

It's usually at this point in the year where I say I'm not shoveling again, I don't care if it snows. And you're right, the shovel was not used much this year. But the cold certainly seems to have made up for it and I'm a big baby when it comes to the cold.

Provisional. He hit that in case he couldn't find the original, so he wouldn't have to trek back to the tee to rehit.

No, because he found the original. It's really just a time-saving thing, so he doesn't have to walk all the way back if he can't find the original. If he hadn't found the original, then he would've been sitting in the fairway lying 4 (the first tee shot, the penalty for the lost ball, then the second tee shot).

Today is Monday, April 10, the 100th day of 2023.
There are 265 days left in the year.



Today’s Highlight in History:

On April 10, 1912, the British liner RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton, England, on its ill-fated maiden voyage.

On this date:

In 1866, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was incorporated.

In 1932, German President Paul Von Hindenburg was reelected in a runoff, with Adolf Hitler coming in second.

In 1947, Brooklyn Dodgers President Branch Rickey purchased the contract of Jackie Robinson from the Montreal Royals.

In 1963, the fast-attack nuclear submarine USS Thresher (SSN-593) sank during deep-diving tests east of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in a disaster that claimed 129 lives.

In 1971, a table tennis team from the United States arrived in China at the invitation of the communist government for a goodwill visit that came to be known as “ping-pong diplomacy.”

In 1972, the United States and the Soviet Union joined some 70 nations in signing an agreement banning biological warfare.

In 1974, Golda Meir announced her resignation as prime minister of Israel.

In 1998, the Northern Ireland peace talks concluded as negotiators reached a landmark settlement to end 30 years of bitter rivalries and bloody attacks.

In 2005, Tiger Woods won his fourth Masters with a spectacular finish of birdies and bogeys.

In 2010, Polish President Lech Kaczynski (lehk kah-CHIN’-skee), 60, was killed in a plane crash in western Russia that also claimed the lives of his wife and top Polish political, military and church officials.

In 2017, Justice Neil Gorsuch took his place as the newest addition on the bench of the Supreme Court, restoring a narrow conservative majority.

In 2019, scientists released the first image ever made of a black hole, revealing a fiery, doughnut-shaped object in a galaxy 53 million light-years from earth.

Post by: Travellin Dave on April 10, 2023, 10:01:52 AM
Ten years ago: President Barack Obama proposed a $3.8 trillion budget that would raise taxes on smokers and wealthy Americans and trim Social Security benefits for millions. The financially beleaguered U.S. Postal Service backpedaled on its plan to end Saturday mail delivery. Robert Edwards, 87, a Nobel Prize winner from Britain whose pioneering in vitro fertilization research led to the first test tube baby, died near Cambridge, England.


Five years ago: During five hours of questioning from a U.S. Senate panel, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg batted away accusations that he had failed to protect the personal information of millions of Americans from Russians intent on upsetting the U.S. election, though he conceded that Facebook needed to work harder to make sure the tools it creates are used in “good and healthy” ways. The international chemical weapons watchdog said it was sending a fact-finding mission to a Syrian town where a suspected chemical gas attack had taken place over the weekend.


One year ago: Incumbent Emmanuel Macron and face far-right nationalist Marine Le Pen both advanced in the first round of voting in the country’s presidential election to set up a head-to-head clash of their sharply opposing visions for France. (Macron would win in a runoff two weeks later.) Pope Francis opened Holy Week on Palm Sunday with a call for an Easter truce in Ukraine to make room for a negotiated peace, highlighting the need for leaders to “make some sacrifices for the good of the people.” British author Jack Higgins, who wrote “The Eagle Has Landed” and other bestselling thrillers and espionage novels, died at age 92.

Can we all agree that yesterday's word was bullshit?

Only if you don't understand what an acronym is. You want to make Laser, Sonar, and Radar bullshit to? They are all acronyms.

And just for clarification, PGA, NCAA, and NFL are not acronyms. USA is, but not in English.

A linguistics/grammar professor I greatly respect (If I'm a Grammar Nazi, he's Der Fuhrer) has corrected me, so I must walk back my earlier statements that an acronym has to become an accepted word or it's not an acronym.  NFL, PGA, and USA are, in fact, acronyms. 

It's just that some acronyms become accepted words themselves, others don't.

It's 33° here now but we may hit 70° today. I'm out the door at 4 come hell or high water.
I have faith in you.

High of 64 today, but then in the 70s for highs the rest of the week, and nary a bit of precipitation to be seen. Gonna be a beautiful week.
Similar here but there is talk we may hit low 80s.
Sounds delightful. Looks like we're back into the 50s next week, but at least we seem to have finally turned the corner on this damn winter.
Dare I hide the shovel and salt? Not that I used them much this winter.
It's usually at this point in the year where I say I'm not shoveling again, I don't care if it snows. And you're right, the shovel was not used much this year. But the cold certainly seems to have made up for it and I'm a big baby when it comes to the cold.
Besides, Rick has seen enough snow this winter for all of us.
Yes they should give out free tee time passes for this summer

The local government should pay for them but that will never happen. I'm looking at tee times for Saturday and 48 bucks with a cart is a lot of money for Spring rates.

They got so far behind in play with this winter maybe they went right to summer rates. I believe the course we normally play is $45 on the weekend with a cart, and I'm not sure they do spring rates. I'll have to check on Saturday.
