Nice save!

 

Sorry, I would have put my foot down, no trees until after Thanksgiving. And especially no presents until it's actually Christmas!

We had Thanksgiving on October 8th

Oh, that's right. I guess I stand corrected then

[The Dansome]

But if we don't get the tree up early how will we know when to put the present overflow tree up?

 

[Super Tuna]

The "present overflow tree." Dude, is this a Canadian thing? I mean, I dated a Canadian girl for almost a decade & Lord knows, I bought her a lot of presents, to the point of "overflowing," but an "overflow tree?"

 

I mean, I'm as much for cultural sensitivity as the next guy, but, what the hell?

 

 

No, not a Canadian thing. This is a crazy thing.

[The Dansome]

What's a super tuna?

[Super Tuna]

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a SUPER TUNA!

A friend of mine stop by the other day on his return from the Gulf of Mexico. It seems that he happened upon one of you relatives while fishing. And after a suitable time on the grill, we really enjoyed our meal that we shared with your relative. He or she was not very talkative but it sure was tasty. We will dine with (on) him again this week.

[GolfSpy WD]

Nicely written Richard, continued best to you with your treatment, February will be here soon.

 

There is one small flaw in the story, Vancouver is on the Pacific, thus he needs to be a Pacific bluefin (unless he can fly, which is also plausible), and here he is:

 

 

18 footer, 738lbs. Pictured with his foursome before hitting the links.

[GolfSpy WD]

WD, thank you, I've got the date etched in my mind. It's like the finish line to a race..lol

 

You are correct on one point, though a little off on the other, though through no fault of your own, because you were unaware of this fact.

 

And that fact is that I'm flawless. At least in my own mind :-)

 

Regarding his specific family, they do not reside in the Pacific waters off of British Columbia, though being a breed unto himself and unlike any others, he can adjust to ALL waters, so he may go wherever he pleases. And yes, though I failed to mention this(it's the meds), he is able to fly, though he must chart his path along water, due to the fact that at about the 6 hour mark, he must head back "under" to "rejuvinate" his system. He is, as I've mentioned, Super Tuna, so he defies all known logic! :-)

 

Though he has to head to other waters to breed, he uses the Pacific waters to "get away" from the pack and to be by himself.

 

Beautiful pic BTW. It's my understanding that after it was taken, he came to life & knocked the gentleman to his right into the water, and the other two, seeing what awaited them, ran like hell off of the pier, and off Tuna went, another day in the life of.......Super Tuna!!

I stand corrected

 

Thanx for reading and congratz on the 3FM. Enjoy it!!

 

Tim messaged me out of the blue last week about it. It wasn't until today that I realized he was talking about a club, not just a shaft.

 

I'm totally spoiled by MGS, I'm going to send in a new donation soon.

[GolfSpy WD]

the site won't edit or delete a word

 

This was a huge reason for me coming to this forum and continuing to come (along with the members who put up with me). I don't have time or patience for multiple golf sites, so I only ever come here. I'll occasionally stumble on one of the other sites while looking for something about golf on google, but that's pretty much it.

[Super Tuna]

I. ..

Just.

Ummmmm....

 

Wow.

 

I shall now refer to this thread anytime I'm ever asked about my user name.

 

Best thing in a very, very long time.

[The Dansome]

Dude, 3481 views! Man, think if we actually discussed something relevent like world peace or a great golf tip!..LOL

 

Hell, we'da probably already fallen to the second page!!.LMAO

 

Oh Well :-)

 

 

Fairways & Greens 4ever

 

Relevant? Haven't we discussed venereal diseases, how to date women 20 years younger and your choice of underwear? Pretty serious topics I would say.

[The Dansome]

I'm happy this has been a good distraction for you and I don't plan on stopping. Best part is this thread hasn't belittled or taken away from the other posts/forums. The regulars seem to pop in for a good laugh and there's still serious golf talk going on elsewhere. Really this thread is the club patio and beers after the round. If anything this thread humanizes our forums and opens us up to new comers.

 

Keep smiling pal.

 

PS: little disappointed this thread didn't make the newsletter

[The Dansome]

So I know it's NFL Sunday but aren't you guys excited about the Canadian football playoffs that are taking place as I write this?! GO LIONS!

[The Dansome]

ummm... What don't you know about again?

 

Some of those American arms would clean up on the wider field. You'll still need a mobile QB though who can move. We have a good game up here and have produced or adopted the likes of Warren Moon and Doug Flutie, but I think a honed Super Bowl champ would have their way With The Grey Cup winner.

[Super Tuna]

Pulling for you to feel RP!

 

The stamps winning seems to be billed as a pretty big upset as well given how the Lion's have been crusing most of the year. I know we had a number of POed neighbours given the howling that was coming out of some of the windows while the game was on.

[The Dansome]

I had a funny feeling the way BC limped into the playoffs that yesterdays game wasn't gonna go well.

[The Dansome]

Dan, I'm answering the watch question tonight. I hope I get a better response than I did on the tree, though I was given credit for a nice save which was much appreciated! :-)

 

Fairways & Greens 4ever

 

I'm looking forward to this one

[Super Tuna]

While you're at it RP, how's Movado in general? They have a couple that I quite like the look of.

[RoverRick]

They have football in Canada? I thought the Lions were in Detroit.

They stunk so bad Detriot shipped them up here. In their shame, they changed their colours to Orange instead of Blue. It was the trade off for us keeping our GM plants.

[Super Tuna]

Short answer, excellent time piece, especially for the price. Excellent value. Everyone thinks of the Museum watch when ya say Movado, though I think I've seen as many knock off Museum watches as I've seen Rollies & Mont Blanc pens.LOL

 

Plus, they have some other beautiful models. That would be a nice everyday watch and depending in the model, you could wear it with jeans or a tux.

 

I actually had a LE (50/100) Museum watch in white gold, though I sold it cuz I never wore it. Beautiful watch.

 

Oh yea, Tuna & Danno, go to my bag thread, there's a post that you guys'll get a kick out of :-)

 

I hope that this helps

Cheers RP.

 

Really, I like to roll with 3 watches (much like how I'd love to roll with 3 sets of clubs or 3 cars ).

A: Nice dress watch for meeting with clients. Simple, but well made with a nice name. Have that.

B: Fancy bling bling watch when I need to wander with the high rollers for whatever reason. Have that.

C: Every day watch for being out on the weekends or in the office. That's what I'm eyeballing now. I've narrowed it down to a Movado or a Sturling

[The Dansome]

I think RP didn't want to clutter up his WITB thread so I'm shifting discussions over here. Read from here and I will respond to RoverRick's question.

http://forum.mygolfspy.com/topic/6434-rpjs-bag/page__view__findpost__p__79662

 

 

I do not want to know how you recognize Richards belly button. Does Mrs MBP know?

 

 

Damned brother, I don't believe I would have told that.

 

Haven't you seen RP's spring break pics?

 

[GolfSpy WD]

[RoverRick]

First, I am glad you have photographic evidence to restore your fine name. I will not ask how or why you have pics of a half naked Richard or what you do with them in your spare time. This truely one of those "don't ask don't tell" moments.

 

However, there is a close resemblance the two, Richard and the Yeti. I wonder if they share some family members or perhaps decend from the same family.

 

Look at them in the same thread.

 

[RoverRick]

Not to worry, I'm on a good program to work on my core. I'll be ready for ski season. And the girls? While they were great fun on the beach, I had a real challenge dressin 'em up to meet my mother for lunch on the porch at the club. I don't think that she'd understand.

 

Life is full of sooooo many challenges

 

Fairways & Greens 4ever

 

I am pretty sure you mother knows what you are thinking about with them. You just do not want to admit it.
