Today was Rhoda's bowling day; not too bad--she broke a 100+ three times. I never broke a 100--except on the golf course. My best score ever was at Glen Eagles, where one day I shot 74. That course is a real championship course just in case you were all wondering about that score. As a matter of fact, I was a 7 handicap for a couple of years. I don't play anymore, and I'd like to give a set of clubs to each of my sons so they can at least go to a driving range this summer. However, I went to mail a package to Bobby--really only a large envelope with contents that weighed hardly anything, and they charged me six bucks. I can't imagine what the cost would be to mail a set of golf clubs. And while I'm at it, gas is now $3.49 a gallon and I fear it won't stop there.
So far I haven't any comments about my choices for the Greatest No-Brainers in the History of the World, so I'll just venture into uncharted waters and mention a few more. Greatest Astronomer: Copernicus; Greatest Jewish Pirate: Jean LaFitte (see photo); Greatest Accidental Medical Discovery: X-Rays (Roentgen); Greatest Philosopher: Aristotle; Greatest Exploring Discovery: America (Columbus); Greatest Swindle: Sale of Manhattan Island. I'm probably not finished with this dialogue, but if you're tired of it, let me know.
Tonight we had a meeting of the "Boomers Club" of which we are members even though we are not really Boomers. Maybe more like Bumblers. However, since it was Game Night we participated and even won a couple of prizes. One of the games involved Word Jumbles where letters of words are jumbled and you have to figure out what the word is. There were 20 different jumbles and I manage to figure out 18 of them, and so I won some "play money". After all the games, we had fruit, cookies, and beverages served at our table.
