Nobrainer’s Think Tank

but it could be worse.

So ol’ Nobrainer was trying to plan ahead for the apparent March meeting of the JDGA. As I’m quasi-busy these days, I reckoned I’d check out the available airfares on priceline. The result? From Charlottesville to GSP for less than $200. I don’t like to fly, but this price was pretty convincing…. That was until I realized that the whole point of the trip was to GOLF. I am not set up to fly as a golfer. The money it would cost to make that preparation would be self defeating.

It took me a long time to come to that realization though. I was thinking that my brother may be a good member who could round out the spring plebe class. I realized that his flying to town would restrict his ability to bring a set of clubs. A few minutes later I realized I would have the same issues.

I’m quite glad I realized all this before I booked tickets.

And the real moral? No matter how many degrees you have, you can still be a complete retard.

Some mention has been made of enacting a baseball, and assumedly golf, weekend in Clemson this spring.

If baseball is involved, here are the potential dates:

2/25 thru 2/27 – Cal – Irvine
3/12 – SC
3/18 thru 3/20 – UNC
4/8 thru 4/10 – Duke
4/15 thru 4/17 – UVA
4/29 thru 5/1 – GT

Given fair warning, I believe I can make it to any of these events. I have no Friday classes. So as long as I’m back here by 5 on Sunday I’m in good shape.

Your thoughts?

By the way, have certain other LXA alums been alerted to our blogs?

Note: The SC game is during my Spring Recess. Also, what’s the plan if we actually want to see a game? Watch it on Friday night and golf on Saturday? Or do we try to golf and watch some ball the same day?

That’s right, the JDGA is hereby informally formed. So, whether legal and/or popular, the Jack Daniels Golf Association is now in existence. In my opinion, the four founding fathers are AssHead, Nobrainer, Skippy, and Wha. Rules will be formed at a later date.

You will note that the category of this post is JDGA. I encourage all founding fathers and subsequent members (should that ever happen) to post their favorite stories here under the JDGA category.

I reckon we ought to document our antics before the effects of age and alcohol completely destroy our memories.

As this is the first post, I will give the final scores of the first meeting of the JDGA which occurred August 9, 2003 during the weekend billed as “Faloon-A-Palooza” at the Walker Course in Clemson, SC.

AssHead: 53+46=99
Nobrainer: 46+47=93
Skippy: 44+48=92
Wha: 55+58=113

Notes:
- Skippy should never take his cell phone onto the course with him (am I thinking about the right weekend?). AssHead should always have his phone in case “Bilemann” calls.
- We did not impress the beer girl.
