Random Thoughts

My golf game finally came together with a 77 and a 75 along with winning multiple prizes at the Jew For A Day tournament. Longest drive; On a par 5 in two and closest to the pin; and first place as a scrambles team. Why? I have no clue! It has to have something to do with being a Cosmic Antenna for wierd thoughts, a channeler of unrelated, unloved, stupidly funny, twistingly ironic, hilarious, glad-sad-mad-bad ideas running amok throughout the space-time continuum. Thoughts that strike unannounced at any moment without any rhyme, reason, purpose, known source or importance-yet they cause me giggles, guffaws and sometimes belly-aching laughter and tears of mirth (which I often share with anyone close to me who wishes to know "what's so funny?"). Went fishing at a pond this evening and caught three bass but mostly enjoyed cursing out loud with no one to hear me and cause me remorse. Bowled a 211 game and a 518 series my first week out, must have been the Scotch. Saw a guy literally smash his bowling ball into pieces because he missed several attempts at the 10 pin, the powers that be may toss his ass out of our league which is supposed to be for fun not fame-I've broken golf clubs before but a bowling ball? C'mon man lighten up it's not only a game but you sucked that night. Trading emails with my son in Spain, but having trouble getting calls through the Spanish phone system which I believe is powered by futbol-crazed rodents when they're not on siesta. Miss his voice and the ability to convey thoughts, feelings and emotions along with sharing recent experiences-all in a matter of minutes rather than reading of his life and trading typewritten words. I once read a sign in a basement pool-hall that said "Illegitimi Non Carborundum" which I was told means Don't Let The Bastards Get You Down. If so , it fits life in it's known forms and is the gift I leave you with tonight. Say goodnight Gracie.
