US Open began yesterday. YES, I know most of you think it is boring...but a Sunday afternoon on Father's Day, a few beers, hopefully a tight race coming down the back 9 between 2-3
golfers and it is something we enjoy.
The leader after round one...NICK DOUGHERTY...ummm who?
By David Shefter, USGA
Oakmont, Pa. – Nick Dougherty almost didn’t know what to do. At the podium in the media "flash area" for his post-round interview, the 25-year-old Englishman stepped to the microphone and offered up an incredulous "hello?" to reporters. He didn’t know whether to start talking or wait for a question.

We are reading Brad Thor's first Scot Horvath novel "The Lions Of Lucerne"...how did we miss this guy all these years??? It is a genre we enjoy and Thor does it well.
He had this great picture on his blog yesterday...it reminded me of something out of a Quentin Tarentino movie...we really wanted to put it up here, so we swiped it from his page. Then we began to think...well not Bond...yeah...you know...those other guys began to hound me...

CREDITS:OK, we let you stew long enough...we deleted that email and
DID NOT use the link!!
DID NOT use the link!!
We see Paul Potts is even a front page feature on Yahoo this evening...
Here's hoping that our friend Matt-Man is feeling better today. He got mugged by 10 guys yesterday....ummmm...it was that or he went BOWLING with his son and de widdle ole man didn feel berry well...and we quote "my legs are killing me from bowling three games with my son yesterday."

WAIT..DO YOU THINK HE WILL LIKE THAT?
Well, I didn't really think about it...
JUST PUT HIS MUG UP ON THE COUCH...WHO CARES WHAT ANYONE THINKS...
NOW THAT IS NOT PROPER WITHOUT A SIGNED RELEASE.
Now really, do we really need to get formal. We could send an email
COME ON WIMP...PUT THE DAMN PICTURE UP AND STOP BEING A WIMP.
FIRST YOU DON'T PUSH THE LINK AND NOW THIS?
NOW REALLY, YOU MUST AT LEAST ASK HIM
OK, knock it off you two, we have an idea of our own...

So, we decided to give him a disguise...you can still get the "Tarentino" feel we were mentioning...
As is our custom on special weekends, we will be sitting on THE COUCH on Sunday, so if you are in the neighborhood and would like to stop by there is always a seat available.
To all the father's out there congratulations and enjoy your special day on Sunday. To those of my readers whose dad's are still alive, don't forget to call them if you can't be with them. If dad is no longer with you, we are sure that he truly is...and you will feel him on Sunday.

Hey - now there are three voices. How many more guys you got in there anyway?
Enjoy the golf this weekend. We'll be buying curtains.
Happy Father's Day!
Hahaha! It still looks (slightly) like the Matt-man we know and love.
Babies, babies everywhere. EVERYONE seem to either be pregnant or has recently had one. I'm getting baby fever, just seeing all these babies. Oh, and the first picture on her blog didn't gross me out at all. What is wrong with me? LOL

TRAVIS: I mean...tell me, doesn't it look like a Tarentino movie????

Yup Sunday is going to be tough for me....I'm not looking forward to it.
**hugs**
LOL @ Matt. Love the pic - and yes totally a Tarantino vibe. Maybe y'all should send it to the man and offer up Matt's services.
Congrats to the lucky parents.
And I have to ask the same question as Trav - how many more of you are there?
Sheesh - better set more plates at the dinner table on Sunday...
Happy Daddy's Day. ;D

108: Kyra...my pleasure...Thinking of Emi and hoping she is home in your arms soon.
So I am guessing you have heard of Electric Flag?

**Makes appointment to get self spayed** If I didn't want to go through pregnancy and labor before, I definitely don't wanna go through it now! LOL :P
Anyway, HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, BOND! :)
I will call you tomorrow but I just wanted to wish you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you have a wonderful day tomorrow. I wish we could celebrate with you. I love you.

Happy Father's Day to you, sir. Unfortunately I can't make it home to see my Dad this year. Hopefully he was able to catch some of the US Open. He golfs at Oakmont East, which is the public course right near Oakmont Country Club.
Happy Birthday!? Is it your birthday?
If it is: Have a good one. If not: have a fab fathers' day.
Popped over to Kyra's earlier to say congrats... it's very exciting news!
In a soft, quiet voice...

Well, I was just thinking...yes it was a little painful - it is Friday evening after all!
But here's what I was thinking...the more of you there are in there, the younger you actually are. Right? You can divvy up those years between all of those other guys.
Genius!
Oh My God, that is so funny with the Matt thing! Thanks! You know I have so little....
TRAVIS: Genius!!!!!!
SCHMOOP: Thanks for coming and sitting on THE COUCH. Glad you enjoyed it...I can send you the jpg if you want...if I send it to Matt's email address you will never get it! bwahahahahahahahahahaha
