Just found this post on Ricochet (a conservative website).  I think it pretty much sums up my thinking on the topic as well.

So this weekend was a 54 hole tournament called the Marion Masters.  I haven't played in it before but decided to this year.  Unfortunately the past 2-3 weeks I've been having a pain in my lower back.  I thought I could play through it this weekend but that didn't happen.  Although I played, the pain got worse each day.  I didn't represent myself very well at all.  Now, if I'm smart (yeah right), I'll take off for about a month and let it heal.  I'll try.

Golf at Big Rock

On a more positive note, Jude and I spend this weekend in the Hickory, NC area.  We got a tour of the Big Rock Country Club and Spa.  What a magnificent venue.  I played only 9 holes but was extremely impressed with the Robert Trent Jones Jr. layout.  And a big shout-out to Bill Knox for playing along with me and to his lovely wife Mary Ann for showing Jude around the area.

Apparently the Champions Tour used to play here.  I can see why, it it beautiful.  We may be back.

The truth is hard to get out there

Here is a link to a purported email from a black history professor at UC Berkeley.  For those who care to read it and understand it, it speaks volumes to what is happening today.  https://www.citizenfreepress.com/breaking/anonymous-black-berkeley-professor-writes-open-letter-exposes-the-truth-about-blm/

Have we gone mad?

These past few months have been devastating.  First there was (and still is) the threat of the Wuhan virus.  While it is being blamed for the death of over 100,000 Americans, there is certainly some controversy as to whether it is worse than many of virus strains.  Most of the country has been either totally or partially closed down because of it

Then there was the death of George Floyd at the hands, or rather the knee, of a Minneapolis police officer.  This has sparked protests, riots, looting, and general mayhem in many cities across the country.  As a result there has been a lot of kow-towing to various left wing organizations and demands for change.  Not sure where all this is going to go but, it ain't pretty right now.  Here's some of what is happening in Seattle. https://www.citizenfreepress.com/breaking/seattle-autonomous-zone-has-armed-guards-local-businesses-threatened-with-extortion/
