Fax is "stackin' a little bit" at the end. Elk is an information gatherer and has basically moved on. Wish Johnny didn't draw that line in there. 😉

I shot this video with a Canon 5D Mark II and a mic setup for Golf Evolution, at which I've served as an apprentice this year.

P.S. This video is one I'm glad I was able to convince Dave to shoot: we get a lot of feedback on it and it's a nice drill. We use a variation of it (without a rock) frequently in our schools.

For decades, the vast majority of those teaching (and playing) golf have misunderstood the ball flight laws.
This video shows, clearly and concisely, how even major champions like Nick Faldo are provably wrong.
FWIW I hit the pull-hooks and Dave managed to hit the push-slices. Each of us had a harder time doing the opposites.
This article at The Sand Trap contains more.

A recent survey shows that agnostics and atheists know more about religions that religious people.

I watched - to my wife's dismay at the number of times the word "cock" was used in varying forms ((cock, uncock(ed), re-cock(ed), cocking)) - the first of the three discs in Lynn Blake's Alignment Golf DVDs.
95% of the stuff Lynn says is simple fact and dead on accurate. He's probably right that it's "simplest" to set the right forearm on plane at setup as well, but that's one of the things I don't particularly care to see done in the golf swing. I also don't care for the left arm being "blasted off the chest" (completely losing pressure point four) just past impact at the follow-through position.
But those are in the 5%. Call the disc TGM 101 and you'd be somewhat close to accurately describing it, I suppose.

Our evolvr service for online golf instruction is going pretty smoothly. Here's a sample analysis from the service early on. This particular student went from shooting in the high 90s to shooting in the high 70s and low 80s pretty quickly this year.

I'm looking forward to this.
There will be coarse language, raw emotions, maybe a bit of gore if there is an injury.
That might be off-putting to those whose uncensored moments would be beamed into people's living rooms, but the Penguins see great benefit to participating in an HBO "24/7" reality miniseries in December and January that will chronicle them and the Washington Capitals as the rivals approach and play in one of the NHL's premier events, the outdoor Winter Classic.
I'm also looking forward to the re-airing of Game Seven of the 1960 World Series, recently discovered in Bing Crosby's media room.
P.S. Pens fans sometimes call Sidney Crosby "Bing" as a bit of a joke. And that's how I made the leap from one Pittsburgh team to another.

So iTunes with Ping has been out for awhile now. Do you use it?
I don't. I did at first - I added five or six people - but I have two major issues with it:
I do use iTunes daily, but it's to listen to a few podcasts here and there.

If I can't catch up on my old blog entries by the end of October, I'm going to abolish my promise of writing a blog post at least daily and will just update this blog - in a timely fashion - when something is relevant.
Or maybe I'll just post a bunch of YouTube videos. 🙂
It's just not worth it.

The bedroom for a certain seven year-old is now done. This is the bedroom in which we put real wood floors and, well, lots of other stuff.
The idea was largely Carey's, but I contributed a fair amount as did "DD" in the language of online moms. The entire room was based on a bed spread that the two women in my house really liked. The color palette, the furniture, the hardware, the curtains, etc.
In no particular order:
The things which are new include: floor, wall paint, night stand, hardware, all dressers, bed cover, sheets, pillow sham, shelves, curtain rod, curtains, headboard, rainbow painting, butterflies, desk light, desk chair, 5x5 Storage, 5-color light, butterfly mirror, nightstand light, picture frames, basket, and probably a few things I'm forgetting.
Two more pictures below…
