A couple of years behind, but I have a Calloway Paradym Driver, 3 Wood->
and 5- Wood..I really love those clubs! When I hit the ball like crap, it is definitely an "Indian" problem and NOT an "Arrow" problem!
I'd recommend them, and you can pick them up cheap now because there are newer models (Elyte and Quantum)...JMO

Didn't see it specifically addressed, only that new platform will be FAST->
and we are somewhere in the middle of all this.

Never found one that holds up for the season, and I've used a lot of them>
I like the concept, but I'm currently "off" of them.

I know this new platform is supposed to be lightning fast. Please tell me>
we aren't there yet because the Board loading, post to post and moving around the Boards, seems very slow and "herky jerky" to me for the past couple of weeks...
If this isn't part of the upgrade, I have a computer problem, (but it only seems to be on TSL)...

You can laugh all you want, but to those of us with Bixonimania, this is->
no laughing matter!!!

Yeah...I guess it was "funnier" back then than it is now. The Mad Bomber->
never really HAD a bomb, he just called the principals office from the pay phone across from said office (wasn't real sneaky) đĩâđĢđ¤Ŗ

Oh OK...I kinda felt like the one I went to was on Main, up by Mike's ->
Grille and Cooks Clean Center...Am I remembering wrong?

My middle school had a guy who did it SO often that he was widely known as>
The "Mad Bomber"...It was an outdoor campus style school and the crazy (STUPID) thing was, he would use the pay phone out side and across from the Principal's window. He'd call, the principal would answer, he'd look out his window and see the "MB" on the phone. He got caught every time! His parents were super rich, so we all figured that's why he kept getting let loose (although he WAS a middle schooler and underage)

So what?.. If EVERYBODY holds onto the "gang" mentality of never talking->

I signed on for a one month trial of UTube TV because I was pissed that->
Comcast fought Scripts over CBS (no Masters or golf, or most of the shows we would want to watch). They got it back, and I'm just learning how to move around in Utube. It IS more clunky and I am a lazy TV watcher. I may keep Comcast another month, but I'll eventually give it up.

AMEN...I watch LESS sports because of it. My main objection is my own TV->
watching laziness. I even have Utube TV right now, and can't seem to cut the cable ...ONLY because it is simple and no effort. It is a pain in the ass for me to load, unload, open, close streaming services. I like to see a channel guide, and click on a channel. I surf a lot, so it is MUCH easier to change shows or games on cable...That is ALL cable has going for it. I know it's overpriced and I came CLOSE to cutting the cord here recently..I just haven't done it yet..Comcrap is a PAIN too!

Then take the money...and get banned from playing in the "other league"->
If enough teams do that, then you create ANOTHER level of college team out of the ostracized teams who took the payouts...how many times will that happen until the whole thing (HOPEFULLY) comes crashing down.

Be more like true pro sports where "even the bad teams' guys get paid".->
You always hear that about when a BAD NFL team beats a good one..."Well, those guys get paid too"...Let's let the SEC B1G be true pro sports teams. The rest of us can play in a "more" level field to be the "best of the rest".
Anybody who thinks we can complete financially year in and year out under this screwed up system is fooling themselves; or you are a hell of a lot richer than I am.

What sucks is that we'll get "rain" every day until NEXT Friday, and it ->
will total about 1/4 inch.. If it's gonna rain..RAIN DAMNIT!
Then when we get ANOTHER 5 days of dark chilly dreary drizzly weather, people will say (AGAIN) "Well, we need the rain", and well get another 1/4 inch.

Really! I hear from my buddies.. Like HALF a gummy and you are toast. ->
Also, you can "pick what kind of high you want"..That is crazy to me....All we had was "Raise Hell Red Bud" back in the dayđĩâđĢđĩâđĢ

Fantasia is the last one I remember....Got so high I left in mid-movie to->
wander around campus to get my head on right.... Fall of 1974. I'll NEVER forget it. I'd quit smoking pot my whole freshman year and the end of HS. Not so much as a bong hit . I did it because of my HS girlfriend, and I was cool with that. She went to Tech too and we dated freshman year (NO pot for me).
She wised up (or grew up) and dumped me that summer...so in the fall, I figured, "What the Hell". Memo to self (or anyone else since I gave up everything 35-40 years ago), "Don't jump right in where you left off. Getting high takes some getting used to....
Fantasia and the Lyric are etched onto my brain....đĩâđĢđĩâđĢđĩâđĢ

They are a publically traded company, they DO need approval, and they'll ->
likely get it. Dominion is run by VERY smart people who wouldn't attempt this unless they were pretty sure it would fly (but, you never know).

You are preaching to the choir!! A BIG reason our rates remained low for ->
all those years was the great "mix" of fuels. We had it all, Coal, Nuclear, Hyro and even small Gas peaking plants! The "climate initiative" we have signed back on to, added into this merger of giants, will spike our rates in the near future.
If anyone is buying the "economies of scale" will provide a affordable electric rates for customers BS, I still have SOME swap land left...but it's going fast! Now, I WOULD load up on their stock, as they have managed their costs well over the years. This BEFORE this new era of "raise the rates until it hurts"

Yeah...and Dominion was doing DAMN well raising prices on their own.. ->
Hold on to your hats! Virginia and NC used to have very low electricity costs compared to our NE neighbors. Thanks to data centers more than anything else (infrastructure buildout to supply the HUGE electricity needs), the rates have gone up quite a bit in a HURRY.....This is just the beginning!
