SO pissed off at the moronic City Government

Who the hell is in charge of who ever rents the pavilion.  The Oddfellows, being smart people, canceled the Annual and HIGHLY successful Oddtober celebration with concerns of Covid.   

SO - what does our City Government do?  They decide it is a good time to have a 200+ attendance wedding in our pavilion and from what I have heard from multiple sources it was a Covid disaster.  

I ASSUMED our city government had any brains and I was pretty darn proud when the Independence Day celebration was canceled with Covid concerns.  But this?  pure ignorance.  It's like they are more concerned with money then health of its citizens.

Who OK'd this??? There HAD to be SOMEONE in our government that was informed of this moronic idea.   Good God!   How many people COULD have died from this decision!

I was not going to blog today but that one REALLY bits my ass.  I started this blog years ago when I thought our city government was full of shit. The Mayor was fine the city council was a bunch of do nothing cronies. 

Since that time things changed I felt the city was in REALLY good shape.  The budget which was completely a mess was stabilized and we started to bring back business.  

Now with this?   Embarrassing to say the least and I had to say something.  Being a cheerleader is great but when stupid things happen  . . . . . .

Not being one that holds in his emotions  . . . . . I purchased some smoked Provolone  cheese and when I went to have some . . . it was not really smoked at all.  I was very disappointed. 

SO - I looked at the package and decided to write them a politically correct letter explaining my disappointment.

I'm REALLY disappointed in your Deli Reserve Smoked Provolone – I LOVE Provolone but there is no smoked flavor. If there is it's the lightest smoke in the universe.

We did a taste testing of non smoked and your smoked and the consensus was "maybe?" smoked?

SAD! 

The next day I got a reply 

Rod,

 

Thank you for writing Dutch Farms. Well….I have some good news and some not so good news:

 

The good news—you have a well-seasoned palate.

 

Unfortunately, we do not carry SMOKED provolone. This is why you didn’t detect any.

 

We sincerely hope you will find other Dutch Farms cheese varieties to try and appreciate.

 

All our best.

Meanwhile - I played round 2 trying to get into a TGC tour playing PGA2K21.  All was going not great.  After 13 holes I was +4 and a little down.  Then  birdie, birdie, par, birdie and I'm feeling pretty cocky.

The 18th is a long par 5 and I had a 11mph wind behind me.  I had been hitting everything to the left and aimed what I assumed was the correct side of the fairway.  So what did I do.  I hit it right . . INTO a trap. 

Then, feeling confidant, I took out an iron that was a little to long and hit the lip if the bunker and the ball rolls back to my feet.   OK - less learned - let's clean up this mess ASAP. 

Next shot goes the correct distance but WAY right into a lake.  F*CK as my controller is tossed on a pillow beside me.

Back the the bunker (I guess, no choice).  I straighten out that shot which goes into a bunker on the other side.  

Bunker to heavy rough next the the green,  Chip shot and a 1 putt 8 to finish the round. 

I'm +6 and I THINK about in the middle of the qualifiers so I'm still "good".    with 15 tours and 150 people on each tour there were still about 10 openings on each tour.  I think I'm still good. 

nuff said - carry on
