I've got a text out to my dad about tomorrow. But if he can't go, I decided I'm gonna let the season rest on my last round. It was beautiful weather, hanging with an old college buddy, and I hit a really great hybrid punch out on 18, one of my better shots this year. So instead of heading out myself, it'll either be with my dad or behind the desk tomorrow.

My sister is 13 years older than me so her kids are already in their 30s. It just feels strange to know that they're now parents themselves. And that my sister is a grandma.

And we're set for the morning. No on course smokes, but I won't miss them. It's actually been a minute since we've golfed, thanks to the weather, volleyball and them spending 10 or so days in FL earlier this month.

Today in History

Today is Thursday, Oct. 26, the 299th day of 2023.
There are 66 days left in the year.



Today’s Highlight in History:

On October 26th, 2020, Amy Coney Barrett was confirmed to the Supreme Court by a deeply divided Senate, with Republicans overpowering Democrats to install President Donald Trump’s nominee days before the election and secure a likely conservative court majority for years to come.


On this date:

In 1774, the First Continental Congress adjourned in Philadelphia.

In 1825, the Erie Canal opened in upstate New York, connecting Lake Erie and the Hudson River.

In 1861, the legendary Pony Express officially ceased operations, giving way to the transcontinental telegraph. (The last run of the Pony Express was completed the following month.)

In 1921, the Chicago Theatre, billed as “the Wonder Theatre of the World,” first opened.


In 1979, South Korean President Park Chung-hee was shot to death by the head of the Korean Central Intelligence Agency, Kim Jae-kyu.

In 1982, the medical drama “St. Elsewhere,” which would make stars of Denzel Washington, Mark Harmon and others, premiered on NBC.

In 1984, “Baby Fae,” a newborn with a severe heart defect, was given the heart of a baboon in an experimental transplant in Loma Linda, California. (She lived 21 days with the animal heart.)

In 2000, the New York Yankees became the first team in more than a quarter-century to win three straight World Series championships, beating the New York Mets in game five of their “Subway Series.”

In 2001, President George W. Bush signed the USA Patriot Act, giving authorities unprecedented ability to search, seize, detain or eavesdrop in their pursuit of possible terrorists.

In 2002, a hostage siege by Chechen rebels at a Moscow theater ended with 129 of the 800-plus captives dead, most from a knockout gas used by Russian special forces who stormed the theater; 41 rebels also died.

In 2010, Iran began loading fuel into the core of its first nuclear power plant.

In 2012, after leaving nearly five dozen people dead in the Caribbean, Hurricane Sandy headed toward the eastern United States, with forecasters warning that it would merge with two winter weather systems to create a mega-storm.

In 2018, federal authorities captured a Florida man with a criminal history and accused him of sending at least 13 mail bombs to prominent Democrats. (Cesar Sayoc was sentenced to 20 years in prison by a judge who concluded that the bombs purposely were not designed to explode.)

In 2021, satirist Mort Sahl, who helped revolutionize stand-up comedy during the Cold War with his running commentary on politicians and current events, died at his California home at the age of 94.

No, they are big Disney fans, they go there often. In fact, they've already planned to go back in February. And they drive, so no room for my dad to bring his clubs. Not that he probably would, anyways, when there's a Disney park to visit with my mom. Lol

Agreed. Though, fingers crossed we get another chance or two before the end of the year. ;)

Ok, so if they were purposely not designed to explode, can we really call them bombs? Sounds like he sent them paper weights. :D

I'm watching on a local channel but this Amazon broadcast has too many commercials
