No $hit, Sherlock…

The Funny Farm News Burro reports today that the craptasticality of our golf game has been unaffected by our three-year hiatus in picking up the clubs. We did manage to get in 36 holes of futilely swinging at small spherical objects with graphite sticks that have striking surfaces on the ends that swing the most. As always, we got more value per shot than most (when you calculate cost per shot, golf is an incredibly cheap game for us). We also got to see more of the course than many of our fellow floggers, but a little too much of the beach front property for our liking. And we still haven't found a brand of golf ball that isn't unnaturally attracted to trees, water, or sand when we are hitting it.

An incredibly good time was still managed to be had by Your Humble Narrator. The rain gods decided to let us complete our golfing experience without having to deal with any precipitation, and it's been a long time since we saw how nice artificially enhanced nature preserves look when you're lazing on a Sunday afternoon. Praise Koresh that our exceptional crapulence does not cause us to wail and gnash our teeth in frustration – we are still geeked that we managed to get a real, honest-to-goodness par during our first round of the year.

What did you do to amuse yourselfs this weekend?
