Jb1974x Wins for the 2nd Time in a Row in 2018!

An NPP groupie accompanies JB in the NPP limo to the NPP after party.
Well its official boys and girls. We have yet another 'playa' here at NPP.

JB played in one tourney last year to get a feel for the players, and now is winning every tournament so far.

The rest of NPP is on notice....and in trouble.

We have to give a shout out to Dave the Dog and The Punk, who have returned to NPP after a long absence. Welcome back to the Everyone Crushes Faldo League.

Faldo meant welcome back to NPP guys.

2nd - Absea98
3rd - Rjmech
4th - Davethedog
Bubble - ThePunk75

Congratulations to Jb1974x on his 2nd NPP win!

Now some advice for retired husbands and soon to be retired husbands:

"It is important for men to remember that, as women grow older, it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as when they were younger. It is just a fact. Live with it.

When you notice this, try not to yell at them. Some are oversensitive, and there's nothing worse than an oversensitive woman.

My name is Ron Let me relate how I handled the situation with my wife, Carol.

When I retired a few years ago, it became necessary for Carol to get a full-time job, along with her part-time job, both for extra income and for the health benefits that we needed.

Shortly after she started working, I noticed she was beginning to show her age. I usually get home from the golf club about the same time she gets home from work

Although she knows how hungry I am, she almost always says she has to rest for half an hour or so before she starts dinner. It's annoying, but you have to be supportive. I don't yell at her. Instead, I tell her to take her time and just wake me when she gets dinner on the table.

I generally have lunch each day in the Men's Grill at the Golf Club, so eating out is not an option in the evening. I'm ready for some home-cooked grub when I hit that door.

She used to do the dishes as soon as we finished eating. But now, it's not unusual for them to sit on the table for several hours after dinner. I do what I can by diplomatically reminding her several times each evening that they won't clean themselves.I know she really appreciates this, as it does seem to motivate her to get them done, before she goes to bed.

Another symptom of aging is complaining, I think.

For example, she will say that it is difficult for her to find time to pay the monthly bills during her lunch hour. But, boys, we take 'em for better or worse, so I just smile and offer encouragement. I tell her to stretch it out over two, or even three days. That way, she won't have to rush so much.

I also remind her that missing lunch completely now and then wouldn't hurt her any (if you know what I mean). I like to think tact is one of my strong points.

When doing simple jobs, she seems to think she needs more rest periods than she used to. She had to take a break, when she was only half-finished mowing the front lawn.

I try not to make a scene. I'm a fair man... I tell her to fix herself a nice, big, cold glass of freshly squeezed lemonade and just sit for a while. And, as long as she is making one for herself, she may as well make one for me, too.


I know that I probably look like a saint in the way I support Carol. I'm not saying that showing this much patience and consideration is easy. Many men will find it difficult. Some will find it impossible. 

Nobody knows better than I do how frustrating women get as they get older.
However guys, even if you just use a little more tact and less critcism of your aging wife because of this article, I will consider that writing it was well worthwhile.



Faldo believes this is fine advice!
