9 Feb lunch blog

yowza, have not written the past couple of days, not much time. super bowl sunday was great, the game started about 11:30-12:00 (?) and i got home 10 to 5 in the morning, 4 hours sleep, and i started work at 10:00 in the morning, man was i pooped, but the game was good, though i don't follow the teams or the nfl, in fact the only sport i watch on a semi-regular basis is snooker, thats a cool game. i used to watch golf, but seeing as how i couldn't start playing (lack of time/or money/ or both) after a while i stopped watch it in t.v., i thought, why make myself sick with longing to play a sport and watch it on t.v., with snooker i would actually have the chance to play, if i would take the time, i know that it is not out of reach. but golf is still so elite over here, ALL the german clubs only let you play if you have a registered greens card with some club. this has led to strange arrangements, there are actually "virtual" clubs, who have seat somewhere, and give out "long-range" greens cards, test, handicaps, everything through the mail, or over the internet. they are naturally cheaper than a real club, but not every real club is glad, or even willing to let such "riff-raff" play on their courses. maybe this year i would have a bit of time and money to start, but probably not, as i would also like to; - make a motor cycle licence, - make my 2nd kyu in jujutsu, - study more chinese, - invest more time in international sales, - get our new computer system up and running, - make a short vacation in hamburg / heiligendamm - travel to china a couple of times - etc. - etc. - etc. i have talked about starting an american (or just english) network for the ulmer region, with a buddy of mine, i will probably start a blog, as this is the easiest (and cheapest) way, as soon as it is standing, i will inform any one who is interested. well nuff sed 4 now, blog on my blogging bloggers. bloggety-blog-blog Yo!

golf can be expensive any road you go, once you get into the clubs, shoes and greens fees and cart rentals.

James has been trying to get me interested in learning to play golf, so he can have a reliable partner... lol But so far, it's not working. He'll keep trying, I suppose!
