Me: “What do you find when you google those symptoms?” Wife: “Well, it’s either completely normal… or you should head to the hospital immediately.”
Great men are called upon by history when they see dangerous times ahead; this is one of those times. And despite our immense challenges, I am feeling optimistic, as I see friends heed the call. We have nowhere to run; the United States of America is where we make our stand.

I've been around a lot of 15 handicaps. Been around a lot of tour pros. The truth is, golf can — like a magic trick — make you *think* you just hit a Tour-level shot, but other than proximity to the hole, absolutely nothing a 15-cap can do is similar. The lie is the gift.
A 15 hcp can hit a tour-level shot at any moment. But an average baseball player can't throw a 95 mph heater or hit a 400-foot HR. I think this is part of why golf drives us insane sometimes. We get glimpses of grandeur.

Like everything else in Sulzberger’s paper, the NYT bestseller list is fake. They were forced to admit in court that it’s not a ranked list. It’s actually “editorial content” and they can exclude books they don’t like. killzoneblog.com/2019/01/cracki…

"Do the reading" is actually a perfectly fine request--if it was honestly meant. But in my experience it comes largely from people who feel threatened by an argument I present, feel that it must/should be wrong, but do not know how to respond to it on their own merits.
Actually, my problem is that I actually "do the reading".
