I think this just shows how easy it is to go from one bitch to another one in a blink of an I. Whereto now guys? I personally hate the misuse of commas!

I'm usually up late, around 11 PM EST, for the sake of people out west.

Since my wife works later hours than I do, I'll usually be on the computer around 5:30 PM EST until 7:00 PM... I'm also on a lot at the office in between projects, but I don't have anything like AOL Instant Messenger there.

At home, my AIM name is stratokatsu (it's a guitar thing)

Put me in your AIM buddy list and you will probably see me online all day because of the nature of our high speed access, but if you are ready to go to bed in Europe, I'm probably getting home from work and would love to yack. If I see you've sent me an IM during the day, I'll respond immediately and see if you are still online.

I don't know whats wrong with that. You can't go 30 feet in front of someone who is about to hit you could get hit or distract them.

My friends family owns 3 courses out here that I play for free at so I don't get too mad about anything out there. Hard to golf 4-5 times a week for free, and be mad about something.

Here's my list of golf annoyances

1. Slow play. Last week i got stuck behind a foursome and each player thought it was OK to drop another ball and replay there bad shots. On one hole 12 balls were struck at the green on their second shots. To top it off they never let me through and it took me 45minutes to play 3 holes. I gave up and went to the driving range.

2. Players practicing putting on the greens when there is no one in front of them holding them up and to top it off, I'm waiting to play my approach shot but they haven't noticed me waiting.

3. When I'm having a bad round and my nasty slice game is in play, the person I'm playing with hits a bad slice off the tee and asks me what they are doing wrong? Well guess what dip sh*t, if i knew the answer to that I wouldn't be doing it either!

4. When there's a foursome playing from the pro tees but only one player has good enough game to do so, while the other's should be playing from the ladies tees.

5. this is my top peeve........When you watch a player take 5 practice swings, a 5 minute waggle session, a series of little dips of the knees and a few other annoying ticks, then end up topping every shot!

6. Throwing clubs. I'm no saint but i've yet to let fly with one of my clubs and never will. It was me that messed the shot up not a fault with the club.

7. Having to correct your playing partner on the amount of shots he took on the last hole. Their not cheating anyone else but their selves.

8. Being able to hit every club in your bag except the 3 iron!!!!

I thought I'd bring this one back. It's always good to let out some frustion.

It ticks me off when my practise swing feels great and then I top the ball.

It ticks me off when you practise hitting of of the practise bunker and do it pretty good and then you get on to the course and it takes you 5 hit to get out the bunker.

It ticks me off when guys take half an hour to have their putt, when their having a social round.

I feel better now your turn.
