Golf league off to a rocky start

We started golf league last night and I got off to a horrible start. Drove my first shot into a tree and it was downhill from there. I straighted out the driver and really bombed away but couldn't do anything else right. I'm such a retard... oh, sorry, I mean I'm mentally challenged.

Even when I did something good it turned out bad. 9th hole I hit my drive so well that it went past the fairway and down into a gully just short of the green. Luckily I hit a good chip to about 3 feet and made the birdie putt so the day ended well. That saved a 50 for me... not good. I'm sure we got pummeled as Dr. Mike also shot a 50. Balderdash had a quiet 43, never got in trouble and kept the ball in the fairway. He also had a birdie putt on 9 but it was much more difficult than mine and he left it short.

I did enjoy a cigar and the course is selling Capital Island Wheat from the carts so we had a couple of those.

Got home around 9 and watched The Amazing Race. It was pretty tense the whole time and the frat boys pulled a bad prank on 2 other teams by cancelling cabs that they had arranged, saying they were dumb for not using fake names. I thought it was completely innappropriate. Karma came back to bite them in the ass though as the cab they had called failed to show as well and they were the last ones to get a cab.

Then came the Yield with MoJo in the lead but the hippies beat them to the mat and yielded them right in their faces. Man, talk about some teams hating each other. I guess the hippies don't really hate anyone but everyone else hates them.

At the detour the hippies and the frat boys decided on swimming a mile down a river past some pretty nasty spiders while the other 2 teams went for a drive through the woods to find aboriginies and play an instrument. That turned out to be pretty quick and at the end it was a 3 team sprint to avoid elimination. For some reason BJ of the hippies decided to skip the bridge and jump across the rocks barefoot. That cost them as they ended up last.

But once again they were saved as it was a non-elimination round and they just had to give up all their money and everything they weren't wearing. Poor BJ, now he has the do the race with no shoes! How's he going to get on an airplane? They sure as hell won't let him on.
