The Hypocrites Corner
Hello All,
I am just back from a mini vacation to Palm Springs, where a friend and I shared a two bedroom, time-share, apartment. The weather was perfect and the people were awesome as we lounged by the pool. Though our room was on the third floor over-looking the pool and bar, the plan was not in spending time in the room.
I tried to take in a day of golf, first time since my injuries, and found my leg will no longer handle the day. On the 14 hole, I was down by nine strokes from the other players and had to leave the game- not bad for somebody who has not played since 2003. However, I did learn a valuable lesson. At the end of the game I was only down by four strokes, thus suggesting- I play my best game by not playing. I consider that a successful round of golf. What do you think?
Anyway back at the pool, I established a reputation on the water slide. With all the rules, no head first sliding, no spinning, etc, I did manage to “Catch Air”. At one point, I cleared the sides by three feet on the corners. Even the “Life Guard” shook her head. Well, that is until I they banned me from any further slide usage. I was in the air and did a flip. The management did not like that one. Not the midair flip bothering them; I think it was because I accidentally came down on my face and suffered a cut above my eye. I knew when I did it, so I thought I should try to play it off when I came out of the water and nobody would notice. I think its funny how blood is difficult to hide, especially when somebody tries a “Bone-Head” move. This was not the worst part. After I realized there was no hiding my actions, I tried to talk the female Life Guard into a little mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. She did not go for it- too bad, she was cute. In addition, I promise there was only "some alcohol abuse" involved. Is being drunk considered Abuse? I don't know, those Vodka/Lemonades tasted great to us and our new found friends in the desert heat.
I met a great couple from Los Angeles who own a ’66 Chevrolet and wish to come down for Cruise Night. I told them they could stay at my place when they do come down. This should prove to be a great weekend- only because my pool does not have a slide.
Have a great weekend all, and I wish everybody the best Mother’s Day.
Be Safe,
I always say that, but is it considered hypocritical considering this post?

That's pretty funny. You should have feigned dizziness and passing out, then she would have had to give you mouth to mouth.
I laughed at your comment at my blog about having a safe journey seemed like something I should be saying to you! "Bone-Head"?? Oh, yeah!! LOL!!!
