Thanks for the reply

TRT QUESTION

Posted by Barrister on 4/29/25 at 7:57 pm
I’ve been on TRT for about a year or so with a little oral Semorelin at bedtime.

The past couple months I’ve been running around like a chicken with its head cut off and have been horrible about doing my injections in regular intervals. At best I have been doing about 1/2 my prescribed dose.

Anyone else ever fall behind? If so, did you notice any change in your disposition or symptoms?

Define “miracle “.
I sued Delta Airlines in small claims court because they destroyed my dive bag and some scuba equipment. About $600 total and they just ignored me.

Delta hired some high dollar law firm in NOLA and had the case removed to Federal Court - - literally wanting to a make a Federal case out of it.

I made it my personal mission to become subject matter expert on the Federal baggage handling law they were hanging their hat on and was able to file briefs to have the case returned to small claims court.

I guess the finally stopped and realized how much money they were spending on this small claim. Delta probably had $20k in attorney fees when they finally asked me what I wanted. By this point I was pissed and arbitrarily said $5,000.

They cut me a check and the case was dismissed.

So, what could have originally been resolved for an apology and $600 ended up costing Delta somewhere around $25k-$30k just because they were stupid and wanted to automatically fight.

re: Releasing clubs through impact

Posted by Barrister on 4/22/25 at 9:14 am
Yea....but it will not make sense.

In my mind casting was anticipating the circular movement of the swing plane at finish and by casting I was simply getting ahead of myself. Partly a tempo issue....but I stopped thinking of the remainder of the swing after impact as a circle.....in my mind I convinced myself the club head was supposed to just continue forward on a straight line. I would look 2 feet in front of the ball and imagine the club head being that far out and ahead post impact.

Now, of course, in reality that is not the case - - the physics of the swing brought the club around, but I found I was committed to swinging through the ball and was not casting as much. I also trusted myself to simply slow down and develop a better tempo.

I've always been curious about BayPoint in PCB. It is a Jack Nicklaus design...reviews I have read have ben mixed.

Usually I play closer to Santa Rosa Beach/Walton County area but that is a bit of a drive.....especially with holiday traffic.
Long shot but I’m hoping someone can give a recommendation for a Michelin Star place in Lyon, France

Not a tee time to be found. I was hoping to jump in with someone who had a tee time somewhere- - but I appreciate the opportunity to play with you. It was very kind of you to respond

Anyone need a 4th?

Posted by Barrister on 4/17/25 at 7:51 pm
Thought I would have to work tomorrow but no- - - tee times are full at my club.

BR area. I play 6000-6400. 13.7 index. I don’t talk religion or politics on golf course. Good playing partner.

Anyone got an invite they wanna throw my way?
It is one I made myself......it is a metal ring that goes over my head and sits around my neck. At the front of the ring is a metal chain that drops down in front of me. A large sharp hook is attached to the bottom of the chain.

The way it works is at address I slip the hook under my nut sack and then continue my swing.

It is amazing how this one training aide has helped me focus on keeping my head down and staying down on the ball. It is truly a miracle - - I have not come up out of a swing and topped a single ball since I began using this.

The patent is pending and I hope to go on Shark Tank next year.

I fixed my over-the-top issue this way......at address roll your right elbow towards the left. The bottom of your elbow should be facing straight down. Allows you to keep tight on plane and not come over the top.

Worked for me

re: Questions on teen drivers insurance

1. When does he need to get auto insurance? Is it when he gets Temporary Instruction permit or learner's permit? Does my auto insurance company automatically knows about these permits and puts them on my policy? Mine is up for renewal soon.



Immediately.

2. How do I keep the auto insurance down with teen driver added? When on learners and full permit my son will be driving my 20 years old corolla. He won't be touching other cars in my household. Someone told me it is possible to keep rates low by telling the insurance company that my son won't be driver on other cars. Others told me it does not work.


-Good Grade Discount
- Yes, you can EXCLUDE him as a driver on other vehicles, but that comes with risk - - if he ever does get in wreck while driving one of these vehicles you are screwed.
- Some insurers offer discounts for additional safe driving courses above and beyond what is necessary to get a license.
- Have him get married ( a joke of course, but crazy how that drops rates)
