My kids always blew dandelion seeds into the neighbor's yards.😂...just kidding.
On hikes in the fall I like to open milk pods and blow those silky seeds in the wind...it's the kid in me!😃

Did anyone else see the director's cut where Wilson had a Gilligan like "little buddy" called Titleist?
I know very little about golf. I picked my brother-in-law's name for a Christmas gift exchange a few years ago. He requested golfing gloves. I went to a specialty store and was surprised to learn golfers use just "one" glove and not a pair.😂 I never realized Michael Jackson was a golfer, too.

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Another brilliant reply...both of you guys are really "on your game" today...and my guess is that neither of you are golfers. 🙃
I play a modified version. When on a walk in the woods I pick up a strong but flexible stick and use it to flick debris off the trail. It's a flick stick, not a golf club. I get more chances to flick than golfers get to swing and high scores mean more than low scores. It's a helluva lot cheaper too.

You are right. I have an inseparable walking companion and if I were to hit a ball he would only bring it back.
It's a good sport for those wearing harlequined jumpers, have one cold hand and like a good walk.

I play modified soccer when I walk on trails. I kick whatever is available, whether a stone, pinecone, acorn, etc and try to keep it directly in front of me as long as possible until it goes by the wayside...I'm a sport's enthusiast.

What's this, BB? Our golfers wear hoity toity white sweaters. Harlequins are a series of trashy romance novels...and no, I've never read one, but have seen many recycled at garage sales over the years...just sayin'.

HOW TO MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK
(written by kids)


1. You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.
-- Alan, age 10

No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with.
-- Kristen, age 10

2. WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then..
-- Camille, age 10

3. HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?
You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids.
-- Derrick, age 8

4. WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?
Both don't want any more kids.
-- Lori, age 8

5. WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?
-Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough.
-- Lynnette, age 8 (isn't she a treasure)

-On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
-- Martin, age 10

6. WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
-When they're rich.
-- Pam, age 7 (Love her )

-The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that.
- - Curt, age 7

-The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do.
- - Howard, age 8

7. IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?
It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.
-- Anita, age 9 (bless you child )

8. HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?
There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?
-- Kelvin, age 8

And the #1 Favorite is...

9. HOW WOULD YOU A MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?
Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a dump truck.
-- Ricky, age 11
