In layman’s terms, the bug was the equivalent of asking a stranger “hey, what’s up?” and having them tell you their most private thoughts, going on about their divorce, sharing their credit card info, whatever was on their mind at the time. You could keep asking “what’s up” as often as you wanted, and hear new things each time. Worst of all, the stranger would have no recollection that it had happened.
I love seeing posts like this from WordPress core.
Incredible day at The Masters. What a golf course. I’m exhausted.
Now on to Pointe Vedre. TPC Sawgrass tomorrow.
In the evening I went for a brief stroll along the river walk and down Broad street. I took a few photos. Then on my way back to the hotel I had to pull over to take a few shots of First Baptist Church against an awesome sky. That’s a big church. This post is…
Blue Skies at Forest Hills
What a difference a day makes. Today turned into the kind of day I was hoping for on this trip and I took advantage of the weather to play a round of golf at Forest Hills. I was joined by two British chaps who had arrived in the wee hours of the morning. They were great company.
The round itself started a little rough, but I got my posture figured out at the turn and had a great back nine. My most adventurous hole was number 14. It was a dogleg right and I hit my drive just through the fairway on the left side and found myself right behind a tree. I tried to draw a nine iron around the tree, but was mainly concerned about hitting the ball off the tree directly in front of me and having it come back in my face. So naturally I hit it thin and dead right out of bounds. I took my drop and hit nine iron again onto the green, then made a 30 foot putt to save bogey.
Here are a few more notes on Forest Hills and here are a few photos from the round:

With a little time to kill yesterday I went to the Augusta History Museum. Pretty interesting mix of stuff. There was a bit on the revolutionary and civil war, complete with various weapons and uniforms. There was also a bit about golf and an interesting mix of stuff about famous people from the Augusta area.…
Hypothesis: I could eat at a different Waffle House for every meal on this trip.
Not going to test it.

I was in Portland (Oregon) this weekend for OwnerCamp. On Sunday I had an opportunity to mosey around a bit and take a few photos. All photos taken with a Panasonic GX-7 + 20mm prime lens. I’m still loving this kit and not missing my Canon DSLR.
Happily, I already follow most of these tips. I write this from the airport where I just learned that Frontier doesn’t support Global Entry/TSA Pre-check. I expect this to be my last Frontier flight.
I somehow missed this kerfuffle when it was all going down, but I read about it recently and it’s stuck with me. I think if I were in the decision making position when this happened my first instinct would would have been to dig in my heels. When I first saw the “United Meritocracy of…
I loved the bit in the the latest episode of the Accidental Tech Podcast where John Siracusa says: We judge ourselves by our motivations and others by their actions. This hit home to me. It’s very common for people to make less-than-generous assumptions of others when they have very little information about them. Once you…
