my weekend and yours


lots of college sports on this weekend... ncaa championships across the board. nba conference finals... baseball season is underway... sydney crosby finals, i mean nhl of course. the indy 500 features 11 rookies out of the 31 drivers (due to the merger between whatever the two open wheel organizations were called).

i will be foregoing it all for 27 holes of golf (18 on saturday, 9 on sunday) and some sun, beach and bbq... the traditional memorial day weekend activities. for anyone who lives in the metropolitan ny area, the red course at bethpage state park golf course is a helluva challenge and hella fun (cali slang). the black course was famously the site of the us open several years back (tiger was the only player under par for the weekend... two guesses who won). there are five courses at bethpage, with red being the second most difficult. you might think that i'm good at golf, but if i break 105 i'll consider it one of my finest achievements on the golf course... but as my friend always likes to point out, a bad day of golf is always better than a good day at work... i'm not sure what he says when it's a saturday... i'll get back to you on that.
