This whole last 6 weeks does feel very mid life crisisey looking back on it.
Resigned.
Taking risks.
Funding.
Break up.
Riding young wans.
This is almost certainly my most Hitchish post ever.

I was watching a TikTok yesterday where two girls were discussing how all guys would protest vigorously if they were to actively propose sticking a finger up the ass, so the best approach was to just stick it in and then guys invariably go with it."We're not f*cking Burundi" - Big Phil

Is the golf suffering now that she has found the delights of late teen life?
She wants to go back to US golf camp next year. We have agreed to fund it and back her if she reaches a few targets which will indicate if she is truly interested. She needs to get to 14 handicap, save 2K and hit some academic targets before Christmas. We (her, her mother and me) signed an agreement to that effect. She is on track. Fair play to her.
Thanks for your help with her earlier in the year. Good luck with the new ventures. Believe and fcuk the begrudges.

Is their many junior members in her club. Boy members too?
My club in Waterford has about 600 members overall 60 juniors of which 3 are scratch or better and another 5 or 6 who are between 4 and 9
Basically throughout their school years they were basically dropped to the course in summer during the week by parents and played all day everyday. Head Pro always helped with coaching and rarely charged extra. Hence 1 is in louisiana on golf scholarship and the other 2 have offers for when they finish the leaving next year.
Playing with better players makes you better and that's a fact. Jesus I wish I could have done this when younger. I'm down to 4 handicap and the difference between them and me is incredible. I'm playing one of the 17 year olds in a scratch match on Tuesday. He's off +3 and u18 international. Will try and get him to the 16th

I’ve actually got one owed to you. I dropped the ball on it but I will get it done. One of our main coaches is a former LPGA and Symetra Tour player so I’ll get it done I promise.
Does she have an iPhone?This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

Always knew running was the true sicko degen disease.
Stephen Kerr is telling me that running was his drug and addiction too until it spiralled downwards into gambling and alcohol abuse and endless lines of cocaine and left him emaciated and living out of his car with no hope at all. He’s now coming up on six months clean and sober and absolutely counting himself among the lucky ones."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Hello strangers! I am coming here to see if I can find a home for 2 Duran Duran tickets. The concert is tomorrow at St Anne's Park. Due to me getting covid and surgery being moved to allegedly 9th of June, we could not go. By the time my operation date was settled, it was now going to be the 27th of June. The flights from Malta went up to 1300 return for us and there was no way we were wasting that for a weekend.
They were part of a Christmas present from Tony to me. I am gutted we can't go.
I would really really hate to see them wasted.
If anyone wants to make an offer or knows anyone that would like to go. Either reply or PM me or send a message on FB to me or Tony.
The tickets were 59.90 each
Thanks folks

Lads, stop whatever it is you're investing in and put your loots into anything Smarthome. That industry is about to explode.
The big tech firms, Apple, Amazon, Google, Samsung, and over 200 others are collaborating to create a new standard for home automation. It's called Matter and is due to launch this Autumn.
The 'Internet of Things', everything in the home seamlessly connected, voice activated, has been a pipe dream until now.
Devices from different manufacturers currently speak different languages, getting them all to talk to each other requires the brain of a DeadParrot or a Tar Aldarion. The average Joe doesn't have a notion.
The average Joe though, is the market.
Matter changes all this. Just like Bluetooth, how it allows the phone you bought off Samsung play tunes on the speaker you bought from Volkswagen, Matter will allow your coffee machine to communicate with your alarm clock, your lights to communicate with your blinds. All over a Thread mesh network, without the need for multiple bridge devices.
Just like Bluetooth you won't have a clue how it works, the point is it just does, and you don't need to know, or figure it out. You'll be able to use whatever Matter App you want to control everything too.
The main app poised to be a frontrunner in this is SmartThings but there are opportunities for the Theresas of this world. Bricks and mortar Smarthome stores will also be a thing, people like to play with devices.
Innovation will also massively drive the market. Billions of R&D money is currently, or has been spent on making devices link with third party devices.
Once Matter is rolled out all of those resources will be pumped into innovation, new products, exploding the market further.
Get on it, you heard it here.
I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

Some great lines in this
Golf can offer sublime entertainment but is not a sport with any deep sense of social conscience. Why pretend otherwise?
So we watched as one by one players at the Centurion Club pretended to have sound reasons for joining the breakaway, and then just gave up and effectively said it was for the money. Phil Mickelson looked notably baffled and sweaty, projecting all the calm moral authority of an evangelical Republican presidential candidate squinting into the police cruiser headlights as he’s hauled out of a Las Vegas ditch in a rubber gimp vest.
Mickelson said he was, like, really worried about the fate of Jamal Khashoggi, because that was totally bad, and in the same breath talked about how he’s really enjoying hiking and skiing and improving his work-life balance. Lee Westwood talked about people being “scared of change”

It's a bit more than his pictures super imposed on a wall but still a bit pricey for a family of 4."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Google engineer who thinks the company’s AI has come to life
"Before he was cut off from access to his Google account Monday, Lemoine sent a message to a 200-person Google mailing list on machine learning with the subject “LaMDA is sentient.”
He ended the message: “LaMDA is a sweet kid who just wants to help the world be a better place for all of us. Please take care of it well in my absence.”
No one responded."
