Recovering slowly but surely...pathology revealed significant damage to her lower abdomen which will inevitably lead to a hysterectomy. The past few days and realizing that this is an indefinite conclusion to having children that she will carry has been the most difficult aspect. Follow-up surgery will require a more intensive procedure at a later time but for the moment, it's quality family time and managing pain.

GolfSpy AFG Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 While I'm normally not a big fan of the No Laying Up podcast, the most recent release is a good one. The guest is Tom Whitney, who just secured full status on the Korn Ferry Tour for next year. Tom is an Air Force Academy graduate who served 4 years on active duty as a missile officer. His older brother, Bob, who you'll hear from the podcast also went to the Air Force Academy (Tom and Bob were teammates on the academy golf team) was assigned here at US Strategic Command with me as an intelligence officer. Bob and I played a few rounds together, and he was his brother's biggest fan to say the least. Bob took his own life last winter after battling depression; since then Tom has championed veteran suicide awareness initiatives. Here's a link to the non-profit he mentions in the podcast. https://1tribefoundation.org Tom will tee it up at the Pinnacle Bank Championship here in Omaha tomorrow.

Shankster Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) Well, our daughter decided that she doesn’t want to do Cross Country. It was 106° today with the heat index, and supposed to be similar the next two days of try outs. Cant say that I blame her. Plus, she was about a minute slow of the required pace… probably because the grass was about to spontaneously combust from being so hot. Seems dangerous to hold practice when it is that hot, especially for people from the north… that’s just too hot.

Shapotomous Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 This is probably common knowledge to everyone else but I found out today that trading in clubs by walking up to the counter in a 2nd swing gets you in store credit not credit to your online account with them. I kept looking for the amount to show up on my online account and finally called them after a few days. So if I find clubs on the 2nd swing website I have to contact that store to have the clubs transferred to them and then buy them there applying that in store credit to the purchase price.

Yeah, once the game got going it was an ordinary ballgame, although the cutaway scenes of the game in the middle of a cornfield were cool, and a walkoff to end it didn't hurt. But for me, the opening and the music score....struck a chord. I've always been sentimental where that movie is concerned though....
