May 2005


The second leg of the ten week Bugly golf tour was completed this past Saturday. The majestic Lambert Acres golf resort in lovely Maryville hosted this weeks nine. Bottomline, after winning the first leg last week I felt that I needed to let someone else get a victory - I am pretty much a great person. With that said, I tanked it big time. Koncak, with a strong showing, moved into a tie for first place with me (Golf only, I am still much better looking and smarter). Here are the results:

Koncak: 55 (skins winner)
Hasty: 56 (skins loser)
Grease: H (yes, he scored a letter H)
Velvet: Sideways 8 (otherwise known as infinity)

Here is a iPod iTalk highlight of the winner, Koncak. Also, here is a highlight of a discussion that took place in one of the more tense moments of Saturdays competition.

Audio highlights best heard using Quicktime.

miller.jpgFarewell Reggie Miller. He may not be remembered as one of the all time greats. He wasn’t a great defender. He didn’t play above the rim. And, he never won an NBA championship. However, the mark he leaves on the NBA is immutable. In an era where players dominated games from above the rim, Reggie destroyed his opponents from the outside. He made just under 24 feet look like a layup. For me personnally, there is no one, sans the greatest (23), that raised their game more than Reggie when it counted (Just ask any Knick fan). And just like other clutch guys like Jordan and Horry of my era who excelled individually when it counted, Reggie was a team guy first and foremost. His critics say he doesn’t deserve to be enshrined with greats, that Reggie was simply just the next “Andrew Toney”. But his fans, of which I am one, have 25,279 reasons why he should be in the hall.

A customer who thought the McRib was good. 3. A parent who encourages their child to play in the McDonalds play area without first allowing their food to settle. The end result of this type of activity is vomit and or an unappreciated odor.

Last Friday the 2005 Bugly golf season kicked off. Here are the results for this years first 9 (yes 9):

Koncak 54 (4 skins)
Velvet Mantis 55 (5 skins - Winner)
Hasty 60 (1 skin)
Grease 61 (2 skins)

After we completed hole five, I used my iPod iTalk for a little current events trivia. Here is the highlight of that conversation. The guy coughing is Grease trying to give Hasty a hint.

I’ve decided I am going to be a trend setter. I am going to start backward belt Wednesdays. Some say I’m a dare devil. Tomorrow I am going to wear my belt backwards. Not backwards with the buckle in the back, but backwards in that the whole belt will be worn inside out. Pictures to be posted tomorrow. I can feel the excitement. Join in the fad, send me your backwards belt pictures (velvet at bugly.com).

Next week I might start no toothpaste Tuesday.
