Rail still hasn’t got back to me from my challenge to him with a British Open head to head contest for 500 clams.....don’t blame him because he would just be donating....

Hopefully he gets into ChiTownJoes contest for fifty and ease his pain....

Arturo is either getting home real late or waking up real early

Case of waking up early....the last two days have been Buddha Days here....all the bars and clubs were closed for two days....the Open starts at 1230 PM here in the land of smiles....all bars are packed with golf enthusiasts....

Looks like I'll be rooting against Stenson and Cabrera-Bello.

I feel like dumb money right now.

Dammit.
