A half-mile from an intersection my 4-year-old sees passing traffic. “Are those cars or just squirrels?” #

Outsider Out

“I came here to completely destroy you, to bury you,” my Opponent said as we walked together down the 10th fairway.
His comment confused me. Was this an attempt to intimidate me or get me off my game? Was he making small talk? Was he letting me know how surprised he was that I was leading […]

“There was only one time that you showed you were frustrated,” Ronnie said. “I believe you yelled ‘Fuck!’ or something like that.”

I don’t like groups of people. Groups become all uppity and self-righteous. They form associations, make rules, and wave their private parts at Others that don’t know their Secret Handshakes.
