That's the only reason I can think of for the Internet being so slow this AM. It seems like it is taking forever for my computer to respond to my keystrokes.
Thursday saw another good sized crowd at the Hollywood Casino for lunch. It was Dr AH's turn to declare "that's a big pretzel." I think he had about 20% of it before passing it around the table. TTS made a quick exit. He insisted he had an appointment, but I really think he was trying to get to his favorite video poker machine. Twinkle Toes introduced me to his Playboy Bunny slots. I had no better luck with them, but the graphics were more interesting.
Dr. J this is for you. The February 2013 issue of Golf Magazine had an article on the used golf ball business. The main thrust of the article was on the dangers of diving in ponds in Florida. However there were some interesting facts on the size of the reclaimmation business, and the money to be made. It got me to thinking about all the balls I've pulled from #2. On a very conservative basis the balls I've found are worth $376.00 at salvage value, and probably well over $1000.00 at retail (that's over 8 seasons). Based on the increase in health care insurance I may have to rethink giving you guys the Pro 1s I don't want. Plus since I've given the majority of the balls away I probably have a sizable charitable contribution I haven't taken. Dr. AH and I may have to form an LLC to take full advantage of frequent strolls on #2.
Didn't you just love Phil M. at Scottsdale on Thursday and Friday. Such great play marred by two hiccups on the last hole each day. Sounds like all of us on #18. Can you believe how happy Callaway must be with him and their driver!? Sales will really be booming.
See ya,
