How’s your week been so far? Heat and humidity are back, which made put a bit of an extra stress factor at golf league. I played ok, but nothing spectacular. Tonight I struggled with the putter. Meanwhile, the Handbells Ringers of America convention starts tomorrow through Saturday in Cincinnati. I will attend, but not every day.
I wasn’t going to have the midweek satire this week, but heck, some readers are starting to expect it! So here is your midweek dose of satire to vault you toward the weekend. Any favorites?

Who knew you could even buy Nazi boxer shorts. I think golf is a very difficult game to play, made more difficult with heat and humidity xx

Given the Internet, I imagine one can find just about anything. Yes, golf is not an easy game, and weather compounds it. Salt in the eyes bothered me more than once. Oh well … I still had fun as I played with good company. Thanks for commenting.

So far the week sucks, other that the weather which I am passionate about – heat and humidity is my favorite thing.
Putter beware….practice makes perfect.

Do you play handbells?? I saw a handbell ringers concert several years ago and thought it was the coolest thing ever. I think it was the Raleigh Ringers. They were great and I wanted to become a bell ringer so badly. But it’s probably way harder than they make it look.

Bulldog,
Yikes … the yipps! I struggle with the long putts …. thus last night I had too many cross green putts. Then again, I did miss a 4-5 footer for birdie. My putting cost me strokes on at least 5 of 9 holes. Otherwise, I played ok. Oh well … thanks for sharing your woes.
