  1. Nonsense, we play mulligans off the tee because it speeds up play(not slows it down) as well as makes it more fun, If someone tops it on a par 5 and doesn't reach the women's T, that's no fun for anyone, not the guy hacking his way down(hoping to get an 8), nor the guys in the fairway standing there watching the fiasco. Just hit another.
  2. You didn't get a single poster to support your warped viewpoint. You are the one who's out of touch sir.
  3. It's really hard to get a handicap when you cheat, what's the point? We play mulligans off the tee, free drops out of the cornfield, etc. No gimmees though, we do have standards.
  4. That's all bullshit, just like they're saying home made sanitizer isn't good enough because the alcohol content should be 70%, but most recipe's are only 50, it's all lies. . Like you say, it's better than nothing.
  5. A golf handicap, I've always thought of that as a gay thing...."ooh, what's your handicap, can i see your handicap, ,my, that's a big one."
  6. My usual partners wont gamble because i win most holes.
  7. Gyms are reportedly emptying out in many places as fear escalates. i cant imagine a more vulnerable place to get the virus as everyone huffs and puffs virus's into the air with each breath.
  8. Spot on, Trump is a super genius, a super stable genius, every word he utters is a gift!
  9. Dont have one, but I'm better than most hackers.
  10. Yea, but first things first, you dont paint a sinking ship. Instead of obsessing over interest rates, how about getting some more test kits out there.
  11. An american who returned from china said he's 100 times more scared here than he was in china, he said no precautions are being taken, no one really thinks it'll get bad.
  12. Holy shit, i agree with runny. A guy on the business channel said a similar thing...just as you cant fix an engine with a chocolate bar, you cant solve a pandemic by cutting interest rates.
  13. I ordered something from china last weekend, the website said it might take up to 6 weeks to get it, we'll see how long it really takes, it's supposedly coming from shanghai.
  14. Chappy, didn't you learn anything from last time? After the election you ran away and didn't come back for months.
  15. The question is how many companies here can survive 6 crushing months? Auto sales in china in feb were down 90%, that'll happen here(maybe not 90), 2-3-4 weeks after demand collapses the auto plants will shut down most production.
  16. They lied through their teeth about the scope of it(prob tens of thousands dead), but theoretically without people mixing it could die out. But it takes time, even in families not every one might get sick at once, the shit in china hit the fan 6 weeks ago, they shut everything down 5(?) weeks ago. Plus by now a certain amt of herd immunity is setting in.
  17. What china is doing could/should work, if everyone is forced to sit in place, in a month or two it should run it's course, every infected person either dead, or recovered. in this country we cant force people to stay inside or tell them, sorry, no hospitals available, good luck.
  18. I agree, but people are still kidding themselves about what "might" happen, a worldwide air travel collapse would be devastating. Oil demand is collapsing right now. Now granted you have to try and control it, slowing it down brings us closer to a cure/vaccine, but it cant possibly work here(unlike china)
  19. I would say chinas 1st qtr gdp is prob -30% at least, 1/3d to 1/2 of their production has been shut down for 6 weeks now, and is only slowly returning.
  20. Yup, our numbers are low because of testing, or lack thereof. On that curve we are just starting the rapid ascent.
  21. I saw another idiotic economic prediction from one of the experts, they said 1st qtr "growth" in china should be flat. They're out of their mind, more like negative 35 -40%. it's all lies.
