OK, First things first, last week, Chris Muhly got an eagle. THAT is the kind of results we are talking about! YOU could be the next!

So, Greetings to all of you who now get this automatically! You are FANTASTIC!

We will be meeting this Friday, the 29th, at South River for the third installment of…. the Friday AFTERNOON Irregulars! Most of the bumps have been ironed out and those who have already made it out know that this is a good time! Hey, I buy from 4 to 5 so you have to love that!

4 pm! Friday! at South River with Tiger and the Wii! Hope to see you there! Now,…. usually I put in a picture or something, BUT if you are really, really brave, bored or want to hear some local folk music, take a listen to the music file below! It was a blast!Click on the link and then wait for a few seconds – hope you like it!

Greetings!

Last Wiik’s kick off event of the … Friday AFTERNOON Irregulars got off to a fantastic start (thank you Mike Kriel – I am sure Tiger Woods wishes all of his problems could be solved so easily!) as you can see from the pictures above. Wii golf with the motion plus thing for the Wii, Tiger Woods golf game and hazards with no ticks. What more can you ask for? If you want to see the strange look in Matt Neitzey’s eyes, click on the link on the left which takes you to my “photostream” (okay, bunch of photos…) in something called flickr. You will see them right away. Kind of scary, actually.

Please come on out THIS FRIDAY for more!

That is Friday the 22nd of January – at South River - 4 pm on! I’m buying! Cost is $5! Get in on the beginning of the Friday Afternoon Irregulars! Tell your friends! Tell somebody!

Thanks to Heather, Molly, Heather, Liz, Janie, Josh, Steve, Matt (did I miss anyone?) for showing up for the kick off!

and a SPECIAL THANKS to the 53 people (can you believe it?) who have signed up for the blog – that is a big help. (the posts get emailed to you automatically and saves you the trouble of having to check the blog at all…! or even get emails from me! doesn’t that make you want to sign up! I will even do it for you!)

I had a blast playing with Gerry on a few songs this past Saturday at the Wharfside. We are hoping to do it again, and I will certainly let you know. Thanks Gerry!

and finally… Some of you know that one of the things our company cares deeply about is the Chesapeake Bay. To that end, I help out with a new shoreline restoration organization called the Maryland Corporate Wetlands Restoration Partnership. I know, that is really a mouthful. In our first year, the Maryland chapter has finished – with a lot of help (that is the “Partnership” part) –  a major project: the  Hail Cove Living Shoreline Project. This is located at Eastern Neck Wildlife Refuge, located directly across the Chester River from Queenstown Harbor. (yes, Doug, that is actually me planting SAV in the shoreline…)

Here is a link to the full article: http://www.fws.gov/chesapeakebay/HailCove.html

Hope to see you this Friday!



Announcing the FIRST ever Friday AFTERNOON Irregulars meeting! This Friday! and don’t forget Gerry at the Wharfside this Saturday!

Tiger Woods is here and we have him! Sort of! The only golf game for the … wait for it… Wii Motion Plus controller.. is Tiger’s PGA 2010! So forget your tired old jokes and get ready to start a new chapter in the Irregulars journey!

When? this Friday at 4 pm and onward!

Where?? at the beautiful clubhouse at South River! at the bar! (I mean, have you seen it yet? It is fantastic! Just got Honorable Mention for redesign!)

How much? for the first one… 5$!! and I am buying the drinks! (yeah, you should get there early before I decide enough is enough on that one…) As usual all of the money goes to the Brick Companies Foundation.

I hope that some of you can make it – I have not even played this version yet, but the old one is a blast. Prize for closest to the pin! Really! There will be! Please tell your friends and encourage some new Irregulars!

AND DON’T FORGET ABOUT SATURDAY night!

Gerry Swarbrick is playing at the Wharfside! (see the post below) and there is a rumor that the mandolin might make it (with me, I hope) and play on a song! Hope to see some Irregulars at the Wharfside!



FMI regular Gerry Swarbrick will be playing at the Wharfside on January 16th!

I have saved ALL THE BINGO BANGO BONGO Scorecards from the entire year (really! I think I actually have all of them!) and hereby propose that on Saturday the 16th at the Wharfside we will hold the VERY unofficial  End of the Year Awards of the Friday Morning Irregulars! There will be exciting announcements! (Yeah, sure Charlie…) Especially about what we will be doing for January and February (hint: Wii Motion Plus w/ Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2010). Yes there will be special acknowledgement for the Irregulars who have showed up the most, scored the most/least, handed out the most cigars, wore short pants the most (Doug, I think.. although it isn’t like I am looking), always the latest (me, naturally) – general stuff like that. There will also be special prizes to anyone who actually shows up, other than me and Gerry.

Hope to see you there!

 (Gerry swears that I drew this of him….)

Look, I can’t help myself. This is SO good! Especially for the FMI as we are all a little loopy for getting up so early and leaving our families in their nice, warm beds! Enjoy! Way to go with a great FUNNY commercial Callaway!

So this is just for the two or three of you who actually check my blog without being prompted! Let me know if you like it!



FMI this Friday – the 6th! – at Queenstown! Please let me know if you are coming!

OK, this is new! We will be playing this week at Queenstown – probably teeing off at 8:00 so try to show up around 7:30 – however it would be indredibly helpful if you can let me know if you are going to make it and how many you have coming. Thank you! I hope to see some of you there for what will be one of our last outings this year – but stay tuned for details of our 18 hole BINGO BANGO BONGO Bash! No date yet set…
