Well, I am back from Florida. My meetings went really well and I am pretty confident I didn't get pig flu on the plane. Actually, I only saw 3 masks total! I had prepared my children that there were probably going to be people in Houston( at the airport) and in Florida that were wearing masks. I told them that there was a doctor convention and all of the doctors were showing off by wearing their masks in the airports and around town. Seriously, I called it pretty early on that everyone was over reacting about swine flu. The only people dying were in a city of like 5 gazillion people ( Mexico City ) and babies and very old people. Those categories die of lots of stuff every day! I bet if we added up the deaths each year by athletes foot each year, it will be more than swine flu. I bet if we add up the number of people that were trampled by an elephant each year, that number is also greater than PF(pig flu.) If you think about it, the pigs are getting a pretty raw deal in this whole thing. After all, pigs are awesome. They don't give us ANYTHING bad. Pigs are the inventor of Bacon for Gods sake! Nothing is better than that. There is no way an animal that produces something so awesome as bacon could be responsible for something that takes out a whole population. I am not a doctor but think about it.
I have decided that Tampa Bay is the best place in the world for new sayings. If I owned a T shirt company, I would have an office in Tampa. Every time I leave Tampa, I have seen a new saying that sticks with me. This time I saw..
1. On a Church billboard, it said " stop, drop and roll wont work in Hell!" Now if that doesn't say it all, I don't know what does.
then I saw, and feel free to steal this one..
2. A bumper sticker that said " who lit the fuse on your tampon? " - WOW! Now for everyone that is now highly offended, there are 10 people that are trying to figure out where they can work that in a conversation.
I think am just going to make up a shirt that simply says... SWINE FREE.
I think that might help a lot.
I leave Monday for the World Series of Golf. Now, I am not playing great but I have had signs of getting it together. I shot 74 at a pretty hard course and then 80 at a shorter course that always seems to give me trouble. A lot like the handicapping contest last fall,(that I had the best national record in) I do feel like I am going to do well this week. I will let you know.
My picks are going EXCELLENT!! I have turned a profit the last 4 weeks, going 8-1 last week and am 6-1 this week so far. WE ARE HOT!!! Not too late to get in on the NBA run and get the best prices of the year for fall football. We are going to have a huge season so don't miss out!!!!
I will check in from Vegas later this week. Happy Mothers Day.
