quaren-block

WELL - I'm glad someone checked in.    I call it a quaren-block.  Along with being a little busy in the mornings.  I'm like Jimmy Kimmel. Maybe I just needed a break after 2164 posts since March 3rd 2008.  NOT including nine other blogs on ACTUAL topics.

SO to recap a few weeks.   Last week I golfed three 18 hole affairs and my knee held up well.   The first round of the year the knee REALLY hurt but after that it's all fine as long as I cart it.  The first 18 holes of the year ALWAYS kill me any way.   Sadly I'm not fond of carts as I don't golf as well, you have no chance to really think about what you did wrong and correct it.  It's go go go in a cart.

HOWEVER - I feel more  . . . . . . "alive" and full of energy with a cart after 18 so . . . . . . .

Baseball is back so my REAL Strat-o-matic baseball will not be totally gone next year.  I don't think I mentioned that my first season of SOM365 (3 games a night for 2 months after a fantasy draft) I ended up dead last and won 60 games.  THAT strategy did not work.   I just started a 2nd season and I'm 12-4.

REAL Strat-o-matic where I have the same basically the same players under some contract the season is almost half done.  I'm 51-27 with three players with OPS over 1.000 and one part time catcher over 1.000. 

Trout 1.139 (32 HRs) Yelich  1.043 (.322 21 HRS) and Danny Santana of Texas 1.095 (.360 22 HRs) Santana was a 18th round pick 2 years ago and Bryan Holiday ( Catcher Marlins) I love this guy with a 1.040 OPS.

So that is going well.

I've been a good boy and trying to stay away from all the controversy about Chris Columbus the statue and all other chatter garbage people get all worked up over.

  
I have my own views on Columbus and statues in general. which I wont go into at this time.  Remember I' from Fort Atkinson made famous by General Atkinson and his butchering of  men woman and children of the Black Hawk tribe.

OH - this is my great grandfather second form the left taken in 1940.



Kestrel Ridge Golf Course - besides some one blowing up some pumps last night . . . . . .


 Let's talk about their course for a second.  They started leaving the grass grow besides the fairway and BOY has it grown.  NOTHING like The Oaks.  The grass is waste deep and super thick and the softest grass you will ever feel.  I've walked it bare foot and it is gloriously soft.  HOWEVER -   I LITERALLY heard this this morning "I'm not even going to look" said a golfer look at the grass.

I also have to mention that the food at The Oaks AND Kestrel Ridge has REALLY gotten better.  Burgers are juicy and I have not had one bad meal at either place. . . . . EXCEPT for their "cheese curds" which is chopped up cheap deep fried cheese that I just threw away.  God awful and NOT cheese curds.

They should be put in jail for false advertising. They are embarrassing.  NOT wisconsin Cheese Curds.  just deep fried cheese.  EVERYTHING else that I have tried is outstanding.

OK - As many of you know OR assumed I'm a male but I tell ya,  this is a really a beautiful thing. Sorry about the ad

The virus.  While most GOP States are in deep deep shit for opening early Wisconsin doing . . . "fine" at the moment but we're getting a little . . . . uneasy trend

from a great source - MADISON HOSPITALS ARE ALMOST FULL and the ERs is being used to house infected.  NO ROOM!

You say how can this be with only 30 a day being hospitalized - well, if you are there for 2 or 3 weeks it adds up. 

The number if infections are trending up along with hospitalizations starting to climb again



The controversial Daily Infections Percentage is moving up


But the concern is look who is getting infected.  The young who don't care or more likely do not comprehend but the PROBLEM is the graph under this one.  Death rates


Look who is dying, their parents.  I've now heard of three kids that caught it and it killed the entire family EXCEPT them.    




*****************

On the cannabis front I have heard that Rockford's Sunnyside Dispensary has 14 different varieties of cannabis flower but you can't just go there.   You put your order in in a 5 minutes window once ever hour and they inform you when it's ready and you have a 2 hour window to pick it up.

Just information.

++++++++++++++

I HAVE been taking notes on things but I'm just not sure what they mean.  For instance 

"Put on your good bra we're going to the Sizzler"   Not sure if there is a Sizzler around but . . . . . .

The dance of the flaming sphincter"    Again - not sure what my thought was here.

OH - then there is Forrest Gump.  The movie left out a few things.  Like when Jenny tries to make love to Forrest and is foiled.  WELL - IN THE BOOK it's a little different . . .

"Jenny pulled down my undershorts and her eyes get big and she say, 'Whooo - - - lookit what you got there!'"      Not shown in the movie.

OK then.

Well - the words are flowing so I'll stop.

OH - anybody know who dane Rogers is?  I was cleaning a closet and found a golf towel with the Dane Rogers memorial Classic on it.

Nuff said today   Cheers
