Life Is Good!


I began my fourth round of golf this year with three bogeys and following bird lip outs on 11 and 12, a double on 13 , I played the final five four under for a 76 . At this stage of the game I have to be happy any time I break 80. The best part is I won $90 from a group who is always offering to send a car to pick me up.

I followed this up with a complete trouncing of Martha at the Scrabble table, 392-320. This included a brilliant bingo with the word "reaired" making use of three connectors.


Unfortunately my weekend ended on a sour note as the Rockets were destroyed by the hated Lakers and Punk of the Decade, Kobe. Rockets were an easy team to root for, without Tracey,Yao,and Mutumbo and playing with 6'6" center, Chucky Hayes who was tough against the 7 foot homeless guy playing center for the gangsta Lakers . It is still a mystery to me how Ron Artest was ever considered a good defensive player or why he never ever goes to the hoop.

Trade Yao now while he can still walk, do not resign Crazy Ron, and keep Tracy if there are no takers. Despite all the detractors, I am still willing to give Tracy more time. When healthy there are few players with his talents, basketball IQ, passing skills, and his ability to take over a game.
