U KNOW i'm voting for those CINNAMON BUNS you showed us here :D:D

Tasty indeed but not enough time for the dough to rise. And yeah, probably too big of a mess for the teacher to deal with. ;)

I ended up making (eggless) chocolate chip cookie dough truffles plus the obligatory cupcakes (for shame--from a box mix!). Would have loved to make more or something better, like whoopie pies, but I only had 1 stick of butter left. Really need to stock up again. Haven't been buying it since I haven't been baking.

And now, I will hop in the shower so I'm not a gross mess at preschool dropoff.

Wondering my this day is seeming to DRAG on :( I seem to be going at about 100mph while everyone else around me is going about 20mph (and to top it off, I'm even about 1/2 as caffienated as I typically am at this time of day :rolleyes: )

Well Doc u got a point there !! How's your game ?? I take a lot of inspiration from you n'Camp . U 2 guys hit the ball pretty damn well and score too -- i'm still trying to break 80 yet . My power is down this yr probably a combo of the chest incision and subsequent muscle atrophy from surgery and the fact i lost 40 lbs .

I'll figure it out i think i'm positioning the ball too damn far forward on most shots so i'm getting mucho loft but about 15 yds less --------------just will re position the ball next round and see what happens --otherwise mebbe i need SR shaft flex

Hitting the small ball decent there Warp. Been putting pretty well as of late (which has really saved my a$$ many times over!) Keep at it, with your attitude and the scores you were hitting just before "your big event" last year, it's only a matter of time until the sub 80 round happens! Plus, just think of all the putts you'll be making once you gets the set of "eagle eyes!"

BTW, nothing wrong about putting the appropriate flex shaft between the grip and the clubhead! I made a change to a softer flexing shaft, with a lower kick point in my driver this year, and to date I've noticed 2 really good things a) unless I make a really bad swing, I've basically taken the right side of the course out of play now that I can get the clubhead back to the ball at impact and b) the small white ball is a couple of yards further down the shortgrass(and occasionally the longer grass too ;) ) That hunk of graphite that I had in the big stick prior to the change was just a bit too much horsepower for the 2010 version of my game, but with the wonders of modern composites and a few swings on the launch monitor at my local pro shop, that problem was solved!

Nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah we all know the drill 'bout driving for show BUT putting for dough ! My putting right now is the best part of my game , my approaches NEED serious work tho -- i 'm not getting the drop n'stop and am running it in a touch "strong" --it'll come but i'm having difficulty getting the hands to work with the brain dammit :D

Sounds like you're getting strong results with The BIG BOY --taking the right side outta play is HUGE

Keep it on the short grass and i'l b talkin golf to ya later Doc after the new eyes take hold :D:D !!

Very nice! Always mean to try this but never get around to it. Then again, the kids are like locusts and nothing lasts long enough around here to preserve for the future. :lol:

Yeah our grandkids and frankly their parents go thru about a dozen jars in 10 days -- we'll be going out again next week to get more FRESH picked strawberries for our winter supply -- yummy

The Queen likes doing this routine and is happily involved RIGHT now -- Try it Sevie with your culinary talent the results would be WORTH it and i'm sure the BIG guy would appreciate the effort too

I've never been to the Comcast Center. I'm usually going to headends in the area. I was at Dowingtown yesterday. Off to Wallingford, PA today. I need a more comfortable car for all this driving.

I've been Downingtown a few times. (The QA/Service Assurance facility next to Lowes and down the hill from the building with all the white Comcast trucks.) My company stuffs engineers from Taiwan in the little vendor room to run test plans for CPE gear. The lab in that building is amazing. I guess there's a distaster recovery section of the building but vendors don't get access to that. In October, I'll probably be living there or over in Moorestown for most of the month.

When I'm driving distance for business, I usually just rent a car rather than trash mine. I'm running a project done by subcontractors in Sherbrooke, Quebec and get there fairly often. From my summer place, it's a car-destroying 5 hour drive and an almost-as-bad 3 hour drive from KMart. Hertz seems to be giving me Camrys these days. Not as fun to drive as a VW GTI but plenty comfortable enough and it has an Aux jack to plug in my iPod.
