Lets play from the tips... you stupid prick!

Actually a fun 104, if there is such a thing.  My son Rob called me from the middle of exams at Roger Williams College and asked me to play golf this afternoon. We teed off around 3:30 from the par 3 tenth at RICC. Cold and windy, I grabbed my driver (because remember, I hit like a girl,) Rob laughed at me (he really respects me as a Dad) with some mid iron in his hand, and I feathered the fucker 30" from the pin. BIRDIE! If anyone says I shit my pants on that 30" putt, there are no pictures. It is a lie, that is my story, and I am sticking to it.  At that point, I should have gone home, REALLY. I was sitting under par, the gallery (they follow me when things are rolling... you saw The Beautiful Mind, right?).   But no, I continued to play and waited for my game to come around.  Chunk, whiff, pull... I really started to get it all going. At one point I really started to feel badly for my ball. It was a pro-v1, a gift, and it really deserved a better owner than me.

God, I suck.
