Okay, I suppose it had to happen. There is now a book out on golf...law. One of my daily stops is overlawyered.com and today it had a post about The Little Green Book of Golf Law. Things like this are liable to make me appreciate Shakespeare more and more. Think about it.

Book Description
Golfers and lawyers alike will enjoy this insightful look at law and golf. Not concerned about the rules of golf, each chapter of this book examines an actual case where law and golf have come together. Read about a wide array of legal issues, including Tiger Woods' right of publicity, personal injury and product liability cases, contract disputes involving hole-in-one contests, IRS litigation over tax deductions for golf expenses, equipment patent disputes, and much more. It's the perfect book to share with the golfer or lawyer looking for a new perspective on the game!

Golf Talk

Those of you who know me know I’ve gotten into playing golf big time. I’m usually out every weekend and two or three days during the week to hit a few. I can’t say I’m any good but I enjoy trying. Recently a couple of friends of mine started a local radio show, Golf Talk with Rob and Susan, on an Alabama station WRJM – 93.7 for 2 hrs every Friday from 5-7pm. Unfortunately I usually don’t get to hear them live but have just learned the shows are archived online at wrjmfm.com and I’m catching up on what I’ve missed. You don’t have to be from Alabama to enjoy the show, while it does have some local flavor many of the topics they discuss will be interesting to all golfers.

ShieldsUP!

Not to turn this into a tech blog but I feel this is a great tool for everyone online. Unless you happen to be a tech geek you've probably never heard of SpinRite which probably the BEST! data recovery tool available. The author, Steve Gibson, also has several other excellent programs that are available free to test you computer's vulnerable to online threats. ShieldsUP! is the Internet's quickest, most popular, reliable and trusted, free Internet security checkup and information service with almost 50 million system tests preformed. I would recommend everyone give their system a test to help prevent the spread of the numerous viruses out there.

24

I can't help it, I love 24. This guy does more in 1 hr than I do the entire month. I actually feel bad about it as I sit back in my recliner with another bag of popcorn to see who he's going to torture and/or kill before the next commercial. Kind of makes you wonder what he does the other 364 days of the year.

I know some of these have been around for a couple of years now but I still like them.

Due to Jack Bauer, no one looks forward to the weekend anymore, they look forward to the weekend being over, and watching 24 on Monday.

Great T-Shirt

I have to admit, this caught me by surprise during the game. Did I really see that on a network channel. Luckly I was able to rewind my DVR during the commerical and low and behold, yep I was right.

Anyone who's been to N.O. won't be surprised, you name it and they have a t-shirt that is freaking it.

I can image someone at FOX is probably looking for a job about now.

DOOOOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, that's all you could hear anywhere around here Saturday night when Deuce McAllister touched the ball for the Saints. Give Deuce the ball and watch him smash his way forward. Everybody is crazy about Reggie Bush but I prefer Deuce. Reggie is good but to me he's a dancer, he loses yards for everytime he gains yards. It's either good or bad with him. Reggie does serve a great purpose though of forcing other teams to worry about two running back and not concentrate on Deuce. This allows McAllister to be able to run over everyone that gets in his way by splitting the defense between him and Bush.

Deuce's 5 yr touchdown run will become legend for the Saints. Watching him getting hit on the 5, pushing to the 4...then watching the entire pile continue to move to the 2 then 1 and after what seemed like the entire quarter, cross the goal line. I hope it won't happen for a long time but Duece just cemented his being a hero in New Orleans along with the likes of Archie Manning. When it finally happens that he retires his number will be hanging from the ceiling of the Superdome next to Archie's.

Deuce is the man!!!!

DOOOOOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
