Starbucks: Coffee only Please!

I recently had a meeting at a local coffee shop (Starbucks, is there anything else?). I was on time. My counterpart was stuck in traffic. After getting my drink of choice (Venti, half-caff), I picked up the Starbucks menu.
As I scanned the menu, I noticed a large number of items I would never consider… [...]

No thanks Paul

Can the insanity of listening to celebrities ever stop? Are they ever right about anything?
Why is it news when Paul McCartney and Yoko Ono (and a bunch of other, pasty looking pseudo-celebrities) attempt to create a free yourself from meat day? Jeez, if giving up meat (even for one day) would bring me closer [...]

Most of us make resolutions [...]

And coming in 3rd…Ernie Singh Goosen

The results of last week’s poll are in. In case it’s slipped your mind, the poll was on who you thought would win the PGA Championship. We had 147 votes. Contestant, # votes and finish:

Doug (“This is not an outdoors tournament?”) Pike, 13 votes, 4th place
Rory (“the course is its most vulnerable – ever!”) Sabbatini, [...]

British Open Poll Results

Well I don’t know why, but an overwhelming majority of you were glad to see that Sergio didn’t win either. In case you missed it or would like to cast your own vote, the poll is here.
I really have nothing against him, nor do I dislike him. And when I’ve seen interviews of him, [...]

It’s been awhile…

It’s been awhile since my last post; just over a month. Soon after I created this blog, I suffered the dreaded nerve impingement in my neck. It was absolutely miserable and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. Without getting into all of the details, I finally received a correct diagnosis. Five bouts of [...]
