K9isadog Wins His 2nd Tourney in a Row!

K9isadog won two in a row, so he deserves two at a time!

K9 is on a hot streak! He made it look easy as he waited out hot stretches by LittleRedElf and Theedouble*d and then took control at the end. With this win K9isadog is a factor in the 2^nd quarter race and in the Totals Race! He also moves up the Walk of Fame!

With another fine showing, ThePunk75 takes over the Total Points Race, moving past the absent Lump2, and increases his lead in the 2^nd Quarter Race. But he has a host of chasers. Another NPP exciting finish in store with just three tourneys left for this quarter.

Golfing - Takes Me Away

Well, it's not far down to paradise. At least it's not for me.
And if the wind is right your ball can sail away, and find tranquility.
Oh, the golf course can do miracles, just you wait and see.
Believe me.

It's not far to never-never land. No reason not to play.
And if the foursome’s right, that joy alone will make your day.
Oh, the golf course can do miracles, just you wait and see.
Believe me.

Golfing takes me away to where I've always heard it could be.
Just a beer cart girl and a cigar to carry me,
And soon I will be free.

Fantasy, it gets the best of me,
When I'm golfing.
All caught up in the reverie, every word from your caddy is sympathy,
Won't you believe me?

Well it's not far back to reality. At least it's not for me.
And if the wind is right, your golf ball will find serenity.
Oh, the golf course can do miracles.

Just you wait and see.

K9isadog Wins for the 2nd Time in 2013

K9isadog leaves the NPP Tables for other conquests.

Well K9 is not here all the time, but he always is a force when he is. K9isadog stays in the Total Points race, but he will need to do more this quarter to get in that race. He just might too.

Lump2 was absent and that allowed both ThePunk75 and LittleRedElf to move past him for the lead in the 2^nd Quarter race. But with four tournaments left, it still anyone’s race. Another exciting finish in the works! Stay tuned!

Lump2 Wins His 3rd Tourney of the Year

Erica Hosseini waits by the shore for the NPP Leader - Lump2

He missed last week, but he came on strong this week. Lump2 takes over the 2^nd Quarter lead and the lead in total points also! Nice job Lump2.

We had fifteen players for the second straight week, but with a slightly different line up. Players that were here last week, were not here this week and vice-versa.

I think we have a BIG night happening soon. We might have a few new players joining shortly. I sure hope so.

The Husband Store

That......and bring you a beer when told to.

A store that sells new husbands has opened, where a woman may go to choose a husband.

Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building.

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs
She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.
'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more.'

So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.
'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and
    Help With Housework...

'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with
    Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

PLEASE NOTE:
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street with the same rules.

The first floor has wives that love sex.
The second floor has wives that love sex and are great cooks.

The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.

Faldo Wins for the First Time in 2013

Faldo just remembered why he loves summer.

Well, maybe it is a start of a comeback. Faldo’s play on line and live and been light and lackadaisical, with pretty bad results on – line and stagnant results live. Maybe this is what Faldo needs to get going again.

It was kind of a light turn out but with the weather improving, these things happen. LittleRedElf took over the 2nd quarter lead with his 3rd place finish tonight. The standings are getting interesting as always and it will be a fun finish to the 2^nd Quarter race for a seat in the NPP Finals.

Yahoo Review on May 3, 2013

Polish right wing protestors caused disturbances at the government offices, attempting sit-ins, as socialist bureaucrats attempted to pass laws further limiting freedom in that country. The article on Yahoo could have been taken from the 1960’s US papers, when our left wing hippies were rioting and taking over college campuses – but with one change. But in the 1960’s the left wing press was sympathetic to the hippies, calling them heroes for speaking out against the “establishment” for freedom (actually the hippies wanted communism). If the police acted against the hippies in the 1960’s the press called the police barbarians for even arresting and dragging the left wing protestors off to jail. Yahoo writes the article about the police stopping the right wing protestors rioting for actual freedom, as a victory for peace – and even hint that the police should be even more brutal than they already were (several protestors dead). I think only a mass machine gunning down of every conservative present would have satisfied MSNBC, Yahoo and the Associated Press. My how the times have changed.

I see Ultimate (on-line) Poker is opening up in Nevada. No word yet after almost two years of what the United States government (ie, the Democrat-Mafia-Commie Thugs) are doing with the $500 billion or so PokerStars paid in cash. The money was given to the criminal enterprise masquerading as the United States government in order to pay back Full Tilt players, to buy the Full Tilt software and name and to grease the wheels for PokerStars return for US players. Good luck with that PS and players.

Yahoo dutifully reported how there was a drop in approval numbers for five US senators that voted no on the Obama Administration’s latest attempt to circumvent the 2^nd Amendment. No report on the dive bomb drop of approval on every Democrat senator that voted for it.

Yahoo also ran a story on how retiring at 66 is probably not a good idea for you. Really? Who wrote that article - the Social Security office or the Treasury Department? Folks, your Social Security money is long gone. It was all stolen and spent by Democrat president Lyndon Baines Johnson, to pay for the Vietnam War. All the Social Security lock box has in it is worthless IOU’s from Johnson. Notice Yahoo did not even consider that you could retire at 60, 62 or even 65. Heck 66 is no good either, says Yahoo. After all, getting the money back you paid into your retirement account is ….just un-American. Yahoo says, keep paying in and keep working until you die naturally – or Obamacare gives you a pill. That is all. Now go back to work you serf.

Meanwhile, The People’s Republic of California continues to lead the United States in the effort to destroy the United States. Illegal immigrants already enjoy free healthcare, college tuition, and driver’s licenses. The Democrats are pushing thru legislation to allow illegal immigrants to serve on juries and become lawyers and judges also. Just think – US citizens being tried and sentenced by Mexican citizens – right here in the United States. Makes you just want to dance the Macarena at a Cinco de Mayo parade doesn’t it?

Meanwhile, the liberals in Boston are doing everything they can to call the bombing there an isolated incident that we should understand is actually our fault! After all, according to the New England liberals, the United States is the great Satan, and these immigrants using our welfare system in order to kill us all, are to be understood – not tried as war criminals. Break a leg liberal Boston…..if yours is still attached that is.
