Hmm...I wanna post something, but I can't think of anything that deserves it's own thread. Should I post my post that is a post here?

Oh, wait...I just did.

I don't know Westwood much, but I'm loving the Masters tournament this year. Westwood the current leader, Mickelson trailing only one behind, Woods and Choi next...Couples in it.

Tomorrow should be some great golf!

Shawnee123 · 04-11-2010, 05:48 PM

Mickelson won the Masters! Wooohoooo.

And Tiger did great. It was wonderful golf.

ZenGum · 04-14-2010, 06:39 AM

I don't usually watch golf, but those guys were making some amazing shots.
Tigger was a bit uncool, IMHO, but I'm cool with that.

Shawnee123 · 04-14-2010, 07:17 AM

That's what I like about Tiger. He said, in an interview later, "I think people are making too big a deal about this. I didn't make such and such a shot, of course I'm not giong to be happy..."

I was taught sportsmanship, but I know personal frustration, and wanting to say to yourself "you SUCK"...he always has had that temper. I think all the eyes were on him because of his recent issues, but Tiger the Golfer is Tiger the Golfer. If he changed, he would be a different golfer. I don't want that.

Contrast that with Mickelson. Now, he was leading and not leading and leading again...but that man always smiles. He could hit the ball into the trees 16 times and he'd still have that grin on his face. He's a different player. I like him too!

OMG...how appropriate. My brother just emailed me to say dad just called him and he just got his SECOND hole-in-one in his lifetime. First one was a couple years ago in FL.

Woohooo

THAT WASN"T MUCH HELP.

Someone is too stupid to have a computer
Although, a little might be said in their defense:
some old-timers grew up with typewriters, and for those, to turn Shift-lock off you just pressed shift.
Japanese (and maybe other Asian) keyboards require you to press shift and caps lock together to toggle caps lock. I had a frustrating time until I figured this out, and once had to type emails holding the shift key down to force the machine back into lower case.

ahem. "alright" is not a word.

just gotta say it somewhere!

DanaC · 04-15-2010, 07:39 PM

Alright, Cloud, if you say so :P

DanaC · 04-15-2010, 07:42 PM

On a more serious note: 'alright' is considered non-standard usage, and the more 'correct' way to express that sentiment would be 'all right'.

But ... there was a time when 'tomorrow' had to be treated as a compound word (to-morrow) and 'tomorrow' would have been considered incorrect. Language changes and evolves. The dropping of the second 'l' and the merging of the two words 'all' and 'right' is a natural progression and evolution of language.

It is a word if it is used by enough people as a word. Personally I have no problem with it. Alright?

Cloud · 04-15-2010, 07:46 PM

okay

monster · 04-15-2010, 07:48 PM

My son is apparently unconcussable. That is now a word.
