Rip it & Stik it

My son pooled his allowance and lawnmowing money and got himself a new RipStik caster board. He was having a little trouble getting the hang of it so I grabbed his new board and our video camera and headed to the local skate park to show him how an old "goofy footer" shreds concrete. Oh yeah....

Golf Synchronicity (Cont.)

My buddies and I have been going to Gaylord for over ten years to play a 4-man Skins golf game. This year we decided to break tradition and go to Lewiston and a resort called Garland. On Friday we usually try to get in 9 holes before dark so we went to the resort and asked if we could tee off on any of the four courses that were there. They asked us to play The Reflections course. A couple weeks later, I noticed that it had been awhile since I had pulled the pages off my golf course page-a-day calendar at my home office. This calendar has golf courses from all over the world. As I was pulling the pages off, there was a photo of one of the holes from The Reflections course. It was for the Wednesday before we played it.

Running Synchronicity

When I'm out running, I listen to my MP3 player in shuffle mode and I have around 125 songs loaded. The other day I was running my usual six mile loop around the lake and Relient K's "Falling Out" was playing. In that song there's a line "...and at every angle there's a Band-Aid." At the exact moment they were singing Band-Aid, I stepped on one that was stuck to the bike path that I was running on.

A couple of Fridays ago, a colleague passed along the resume of a contractor that he was planning to bring in to do some work in his area. The contractor's name was Tom Watson. My name recognition trigger of course fired right away to the golfer Tom Watson. When I came home from work that night, I learned that my son had attended a nearby Senior PGA event and as I was reviewing the resume of Tom Watson the contractor that afternoon, he was having his hat signed by Tom Watson the golfer.
