Bits and Pieces

-Saturday Morning Scramble Winners: Dave Wininger and Joe Allen had a round of 31 to easily beat three other teams in yesterday's scramble.  Short Jeffers and Lee Wininger carded a 33 while Doug Denson and Wayne Souerdike along with Mike Bird and Tracy Rayhill each shot even par.

-Six of the eight scramble players went on to play nine holes of alternating shot with Short Jeffers and Wayne Souerdike's 35 nipping Doug Denson and Mike Bird's 36.  Dave Wininger and Joe Allen finished with a disappointing 41.

-Irish win!  Beat Army, 27-3, as defense again shines.  That makes them bowl eligible.  Of course, most of us are looking at the next game against hated rival USC.  That takes place out in LA next Saturday at 5pm.  Go Irish!

-Had a little scare yesterday afternoon:  While in the clubhouse late in the afternoon, got a little headache which was followed by nausea which was followed by numbness in my left arm.  Went home, told Diane, sat down for a bit, continued to feel terrible, and then had Diane take me down to Memorial's emergency room.  Two hours later, after tests and blood lettings and conversations, and feeling much better, returned home (just in time for the ND-Army game start).  Nothing wrong with my head or my heart - the paper they gave me says I was evaluated for a stroke.  So, after all is said and done, what really happened might have been this:  Head ache - caused by hunger - hadn't eaten since an 8:30 breakfast; nausea -something I ate Friday?  And numbness in my left arm - a pinched nerve - been socking heating pads to that shoulder the past few days - thought it was stress.  Probably could have taken a little nap after a bowl of soup and been just fine, right?

-Looks like our good weather is finally going to end with rain coming in tomorrow and much cooler weather arriving in the area Thursday.  Better get out to the golf course today and get in 27, 18 anyway.

-Go Colts, beat Pats.

-Time for a walk, a heart smart walk.
