A Golfing Michiganderhttp://spaces.msn.com/members/migolfer [A Golfing Michigander] While traveling in the Leelanau Peninsula recently, I had the opportunity to get out and play 9 holes of golf. Although going to an upscale course might be my first instinct, there are times in which I like to play lesser known, even below average courses too. In this area there is one such place - a rather unusual, if not conventionally named course: Veronica Valley. Unusual because the brochure for it states, "A..rolling..course with cleverly placed Smithsonian registered artistic attractions and farm implements..."

Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.

[Winter Sunshine] Rock On, Anne Lamott: Even though not all of us were thrilled with Lamott's constant harping on Bush (not that we like Bush--we just didn't always like the constant harping), we did appreciate the way she moved toward at least a good effort at loving and forgiving him by the end of the book, witness chapter seventeen, "loving your president, day 2" and even the last chapter, where Lamott writes that she "started to believe in George Bush" (even though she then concludes that "believing in George Bush was so ludicrous that believing in God seems almost rational"). Bush seemed to play the role of front man in the book--someone to take the fall for much of Lamott's frustration, but also someone who illustrates the need and capacity for forgiveness. That's not an entirely bad role to play. It is, in effect, very generous of Lamott, who clearly does not like the guy, to assign him this role.

The company claims its 7-ounce stun gun -- slightly heavier than a cell phone -- can flatten and temporarily incapacitate a target with a hit anywhere on the body. Assemblyman Mark Leno, D-San Francisco, responding to concerns about the deaths of people zapped by Tasers wielded by police officers, introduced AB1237 to prohibit the manufacture, sale or possession of the weapons -- with an exemption for law enforcement use....

http://www.red-state.com [Red-state.com] RED-STATE.COM: the Michael Meckler weblog: Bouncin’ Bob will have been in the Second District all of 64 days when the primary is held. If you’re keeping score, that’s 18 fewer days than Alan Keyes was in Illinois before he got thumped by Barack Obama in that state’s US Senate race last year.Blumer uses the nickname Bouncin' Bob to allude to the former Congressman's bounced checks that came to light during the scandal at the House Bank back in 1992. The scandal, along with a nasty primary fight and redistricting, contributed to McEwen losing his seat to Ted Strickland that year in the former 6th Congressional District. An anonymous blogger (whose postings are too offensive to deserve a link) regularly refers to McEwen as Botox Bob, a nickname that hearkens back to '80s-era nicknames Hollywood Bob and Malibu Bob due to McEwen's excessively-groomed appearance.

[Thejonblog.com] Jon's Knit Blog: Close enough that I just decided, "Screw it, I’m going to make it." I almost finished the first sleeve that day in Alexandria. Oh, what joy it was to knit pure, plain, unadulterated stockinette stitch, in one, simple color, in yarn that says it’s cotton but feels almost like there’s silk in there. So on Saturday night, I finished the second sleeve and started the front.
