Getting To Know You, Topic #2

Dyv, you finally did something productive with a post. Good job! :D



Some of you boys are lying about your ages. Dyv, 33? No wonder that bartender carded you at the Rio last year! :D Hell, I've got blisters older than 33.



Zaleski, you might be 45 but you look like 55 going on 65. Magner is 40? What the hell? Ken Bayes is that young? He looks older than Zaleski. :D



Damn. I'll bite.

Seems like we have quite a few financial / investment professionals in this. Might be good in a keeper and trade league (buy low, sell high), but the ultimate????

And that IS code!



I'd like to hear more about your fund, GARP is good.

An according to all polls, you look like 56, going on 66 then. Everytime we stop someone on the street and ask, you always lose :D

Long Drive Pro, that's cool. My son dabbles in that. He won a couple remax qualifiers but never made it out of the regionals and doesn't have the time to try any LDA events. He hauls around these 54" long drivers by SMT and Bang Golf that cost about as much as my whole set. He gets them made by Pat Dempsy at Horsepower golf. Are you signed up for the golf event in Vegas?

Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

Despite what goes on these boards I believe all these guys are some of the best people you can meet. I’m lucky enough to attend my second NFBC event. I plan on being at the third. Anyone reading this still thinking about joining don’t delay. You’d be missing a moment you won’t ever forget.
