Huh. Never really played golf. We whacked balls around the pasture with some second hand clubs when I was a kid. Seemed a lot more fun than what I've seen driving past the course. Haven't even touched a club in more than 40 years.

I only started playing golf as a means of proving a point...to prove a theory. And along the way, the game has a way of expressing value...in ways that cannot be measured linguistically. Hitting a golf ball almost perfectly....is pure grace....one of the sweetest feelings known to man or woman. In golf....there is perfection in motion....literally grace....joy in the moment. One with God....so to say. And it can be taught. We can bypass the metaphysical? I don't think we can....but would be willing to investigate with the younger generations. We don't need our gods poisoning their well....something like that. However, the 'belief' that we can strike a ball perfectly can also be a well informed belief....and in my opinion...that is a religious experience...when the metaphysical and the physical overlap as one thing....for that brief moment....we are one with our own creation....it doesn't happen by accident. It can happen by accindent. It can also be mastered to near perfection....right up to godlike perfection....pure grace in motion. Beyond martial arts....golf can become a new path to enlightment. And most definitely...it exposes us to the gates of embarrassment hell....at any given moment...in any given shot. That is the given....the original sin....the last temptation of Christ....next time I'm coming back as a Golf Pro.😇 Some of the golf pros out there are creating miracles everyday....and miracles pay. Something along the lines of Caddyshack....crossed with Baggar Vance....Groundhog day. We can have a lot of fun with this....the structures are already in place. Just make Golf into ministries....build congregations. The kids will love this....we can unite the generations. Spread the good word. Peace.😇

I think I get it. In a weird way, even just whacking the ball around in a pasture, making up our own rules and courses... my memory sort of vibes with what you're saying. Well... Good for you! Thanks for the post.

I'd actually forgotten about that. I knew a pothead who did disk golf. Apparently it was a sport almost exclusively for potheads. Weird.

I eat potatoes. Equivocation. Oh, I know, we'll refer to people who sharpen poles and impale people on them as "Plant Users". People who drive bamboo shoots under other people's fingernails? Plant users. People who extract poisons to kill other people with from plants? Plant users. Equivocation: It's not just for potheads.

Your brain goes to finger nail torture? I hopefully never have to answer questions that you want to know. I'm just going to tell you. Fuck the next guy.

Ahem! My 'human' brain goes to finger nail torture. And, let's not try to escape the equivocation trap. You're trying to equivocate "plant users" with potheads. I'm helping you out here with other examples of "plant users". People who murder using hemlock poison: Plant users. Right? Just exactly like potheads. Plant users. People who lynched accused criminals in the past with hemp ropes: Plant users. Right? If I'm getting something wrong here; then let me know. You want to equivocate potheads as "plant users" and nothing more. So there's nothing wrong with associating potheads with lynch mobs, impalers, torturers and poisoners as long as they use plants to do it. Right? I mean, that's obviously your point. That potheads should be lumped in with all people who use plants for any purpose whatsoever. Right? It's all just "plant users". Right? Or are you just assuming no one could possibly imagine a negative inference for the label "plant user". Yeah. That's it. You thought you could just equivocate eating salad with smoking pot and actually couldn't use your pot shrunk brain to see the problems with trying that. Here's the problem. "Plant users" have tortured and murdered almost all of the people in history who have ever been tortured and murdered. In fact I'd almost bet everything I've ever had that absolutely every single person who has ever tortured and or murdered anyone is a "plant user". This thinking thing we non pot users do... You might wish you could do it too.

Yes, you are right. Potheads and hemp users hand in hand. You have a tangent, you really went off on it. But yes, potheads use a plant. Yes, lots of people could think lots of things when I say plant users. As obviously you have had a string of thoughts about using plants.

It's not my tangent. You wanted to equivocate. So, let's equivocate. Plant users. That's what you wanted to talk about.

Yes, I use a plant to smoke it. I'm not torturing someone... Big difference. "user" infers action.

Sorry, where's the example of me not describing actions? You're engaging in equivocation and you're too lazy to look up the word so that you know what it means. ""user" infers action." Huh? You use a plant to smoke it. Another uses a plant in another way. Exactly what are you correcting here?

I smoke a flower. I don't use it to torture people. I am a gun user. You should have fun with and extrapolating it out to its wildest conclusion.

Pot brain can't cope with anything outside it's initial parameters. You're equivocating. And you get upset when I do it to you in response to your equivocation. It's like saying that cancer is just cells trying to live. Just like any other cells. Exactly the same. Which means we shouldn't do anything to try to control or defeat cancer. Just some living cells. Trying to survive. Hey, I've got some liquor right here in front of me and it's... Holy fucking shit! It's just plants that have been consumed by yeast! Oh my god! You've set me free! Now that I know drinking liquor is just being a "plant user" I'm suddenly free to consume absolutely any quantity of liquor and engage in any activity I feel like! And, thanks to you, I also know that it's a "stimulant" which doesn't effect brain chemistry at all! That means whatever I do while I'm drunk is just me, but drunk! Holy shit! At last I understand the potheads! I'm exactly the same sober as drunk and you're exactly the same straight as totally fucked up! The pot doesn't have any effect on you whatsoever! It's precisely the same as having a cup of tea! Now, if you'll pardon me, I've got to pick a fight with that fucking smug tree in my front yard.

There is a unique sound to a bat hitting a baseball and a club hitting a golf ball in the sweet spot. Its like chasing that first "love" for the rest of your life.
