Before I start this story, I want to make it clear that I am not the same caliber wordsmith as Jack.
Being the true team player that I am, I took a travel bullet for the team last night. My travel home from a week long trip started out normal and ended in an airline nightmare. My connecting flight in Memphis took off, albeit late due to weather, and was halfway into its journey to Milwaukee when the pilot announced the windshield wiper broke and we needed to return to Memphis.
Upon landing in Memphis all the passengers were asked to deplane and wait for further instructions, and we all knew what was coming, this flight was cancelled. At this point I made my way to baggage claim to get my bag only to find out that Delta routed my luggage on a different flight and I was told by a "very savy" customer service rep that my bag was already in Milwaukee.
So now it was approaching 10PM, and I headed to the hotel, no luggage, no dinner, and no flight until 8:40 Friday morning.
This advernture, along with some other recent delays, should allow for clear sailing on March 24th.
No thanks needed, just send $$$.
Happy Friday,
Mike

A Month and Counting
Well here we are 30 days from the invasion and it can not come quick enough. Mother Nature's latest fury has made us even more anxious to hit the links, I am sure DF is already trying to get to Florida in the next two weeks.
On Saturday at the dome Dan and I learned something new from Mr. Frenzel, the reason Darrell can not hit the chipping targets is that the dome roof is to low. To paraphrase....If the ceiling were higher I could just hit my normal F2 flop shot and drop the ball right on the target but instead I hit the roof. I am sure Dave Pelz would be proud Darrell's short game prowess.
I hope you all have a good week and I will see you at the dome on Saturday.

33 Days
There are 33 days until The National invades Mesquite for the 4th consecutive year. First timers in 2011 are Brian Pederson, Marc Cuthbert, Fred " Win My $$$" Steiner, and the 2010 CMPC Club Champ Lee Gardner.
The group will be gathering on Saturday's at the dome to watch Darrell hit the door, make sure Jaeger does not snap his spinal column and in general to work off the winter rust. The Orlando trip was not enough for some.
Weekly updates are scheduled and daily updates, results, pictures adn stories will be posted each day from Mesquite.
