18 Holes Down the Drain

I've always admired golf, the patience that goes into it is incredible. The git-ups are sometimes on point but there are some golfers that shouldn't be allowed to wear certain articles of clothing.

Okay, back to the sport. So aside from not being able to follow that little white ball as its hit, the main reason I'm not really a golf guy is because I'm unable to get the technique down. As a kid my uncle was a amateur gofer and would give lessons from time to time but for the life of me I could never get it down. I blame my god like broad shoulders and inability to have my lower and upper body go in different directions while holding my arms straight and head stay down. Its all very exhausting and I've got better things to do.

Before I get people stampeding at my doorstep with pitchforks I want to say that I have nothing but respect for golfer like Tiger Woods and Phil Mickleson. These players transcended the edge of the game with their rivalry and brought a high energy level to game similar to that of Magic Johnson and Larry Bird.

At the end of the day I would rather watch my five year nephew scramble for a soccer with other five year old. Maybe the day fights break out on the 18th hole I will show some interest or the day Tiger returns to glory. For me golf needs some sort of human on human contact of at least some trash talk. Until that day Golf will just be boring to me because of sociology-economic status growing up. Its the reason I took up wrestling as a kid because it was cheap and I got to beat up on people. My psychiatrist said it was a great way to release anger.

Learn to Taco About It

  Learn To Create Simple Delicious Tacos One Taco Night - It began as a normal night in Mareno Valley California, with nine of us arguing about what we should have for dinner. You heard pizza in one corner and burgers in the other corner. As I started looking through the fridge I immediately saw the answer to the our problems. A pack of yellow organic tortillas, staring at me right in the face. I just smiled back, as ideas began turning in my head. What kind of meat would we cook?, does this fridge also have salsa, were there vegetables? if so  what kind? It would seem as a trip to the grocery store was in place. Everyone still did't know what was going on but as I started to leave I simply turned back and said "tacos" No Experience Need- It doesn't take a fancy culinary degree to put together creative tacos ideas that manifest in your head. I recommend you lead from stomach and listen to what it is trying to say. Although I suggest you don't begin thi...

Tacos Nations

Taco'ing to Strangers CEDAR CITY, Utah --This past Tuesday, I gathered a diverse group of student with different cultural background to experience one of Cedar City's best local Mexican restaurants called Lupitas. One of the best things about SUU is the cultural diversity that gives this place a worldly energy. A place that no matter your cultural background you can find your place among caring and supportive community members. If just for a moment you feel lost, there is someone their to walk this new path with you and guide you. Its part of the reason I chose Taco Tuesday as a way to guide anyone who walking alone in the unknown to a place of the known. At first Taco Tuesday was just another reason to eat tacos like Cinco De Mayo or Quinceneras. It was a reason to meet up with friends and spend pocket change on delicious tacos. Even though Taco Tuesday has a catchy ring to it and that would be the preferred day to grab some tacos but a lot of people have busy work da...

Lady Birds Soar High

Small School Victories Over Bigs CEDAR CITY, Utah -- Last night the Southern Utah University womens basketball team defeated the BYU Cougars at home inside the America First event center.  This was a big victory for the Lady Thunderbird coming off a three-game losing streak in California. It was also a moral boost and momentum shift for the team. As this shows a small school like SUU is able to compete with tops school. The significance of this also shows that the team has the tools to grab more victories and even make it to the big tournament. Winning this big in front of a home crowd gives the Ladys the confidence the need to begin a winning streak against upcoming big schools. All this goes to prove that on any given day anyone could win and anyone could  lose. It's in every team that's ever competed against big schools. The talent is there, there just needs to be heart. Give that extra ounce of breathe to get that loose ball or make the...
