The Golf Shot of My Life

Posted on June 24th, 2007 in Rants and Raves, Geek Stuff by jason

120 yds out, uphill on the Mancation 2007 golf scramble, i believe it was hole 10. Scott hit a wedge, short and left, Brian a 9 iron short and left. Brian tells me to go grab my 8 and hit it. So i do, and it heads right to towards the pin hits the green bounces once and goes out of site. We take the carts up to the green im expecting a 5-10 foot birdie putt, but my ball is no where to be seen. Scott and Brian where it’s either in the hole or off the green, realizing my skill level, luck level and the extremely fast greens i was thinking it was off the green, and turned around to get my wedge. When a shout of IT’S IN THE HOLE comes from behind me. Yes i had sunk it for an eagle to give my team a 2 stroke lead, which we of course ended up losing by 2 anyway. But i was too stoked to care. What was the secret? Due to having a few too many the nite before, i had a slight case of the miller lite flu, i finally gave in and had a beer on the turn, the next hole….eagle.

check out this course, while it is laid out someone different now than what the site shows, it is still one heck of a course and at 27.50 per person for 18 and a cart a hell of a deal. You can’t bring your own cooler, but beer girls in carts, and a snack shop on 9 makes sure you have plenty of cold ones be it coke beer or water for your round

My Take On Nucleus So Far

Ok i found my first major beef it, i have no way of posting code at all….most of the time software like this always has some sort of function built in to do it, most often thru bb code’s tag, maybe i missed an enable bbcode option somewhere i’m going to check right now, kinda of a bummer too, i was kinda liking it’s simple layout and ease of use, but let me see what the deal is before i make any final judgements

Ok i needed a place to post all these new programs i’ve been writing lately, so they could found and used by everyone, not just UBP members or Basscrawler readers. I also needed a place to write some columns and blow off steam that really didnt fit into any of the sites Herban Media owns and operates, so instead of going the the hassles of creating a special site, i decided to throw up a blog-type thing under my name that could act as a catch all for all the extra stuff i do, as well as a central gathering point of all the known sites and programs i have done. I also decided to try out a new blogging system instead of the b2 evolution i use on basscrawler magazine, not that b2 is lacking, just wanted to see what else there was out there since i didnt like wordpress at all.
