Congratulations anyway. We're proud of you for just getting into the Tournament. You finished. I can't imagine three days without your putter working normal. Great job.

Oh, by the way, when we play next spring, you ride with Innercityteacher.

....your suburban (notice "sub" urban) Chicago person.! My Spring break is April 18th-22nd. Pick your dates in that window. Grab your ankles, bend over (won't be the first time, right?) and kiss your butt goodbye!!!!

Loser of the most holes in this grudge match cannot post for that number of days up to seven, and the winner gets unlimited emoticons with which to torment the loser for one week! Match play, 2 rounds, no strokes, from the tips of whichever course is around (if we take a lesson do we play for free at Lynn's course?).

I'm sending Lynn a PM right now to ask if he'll be around for a couple of lessons and to see if I can get my GSEM. I'm starting a new savings fund: "Daryl's Stone Marker Noting the Scores of His Losses to InnerCityTeacher, April 2011."

Hopefully, Jerry and Kevin, not to mention OB and others will be on hand when you finally capitulate.

I have respect for you Daryl, as an intelligent, sophisticated golfer, and as a very good and funny writer, but it's time you face the Primeval forces that shaped the cosmos (nastier than your daily use of Metamucil and prunes). Contact your priest, rabbi, minister or channel Saddam H. Ask them to describe what life will be like after your defeat. Ask them to use optimistic, positive terms, since I will be kind even while shattering your golfing swagger!

It's on! "Feelin' froggy? Jump up!"
