Put on yer Unca Walt's hat:You know you’re getting old when you start watching golf on TV and actually enjoy it
I useta worry about my cousin, Brandt Snedeker. I worried about how chancy a sport like golf is; millions play it (unlike football), but only a few dozen at most get truly ahead, money-wise.
It would make me crazy to see him dub a shot or some other disaster in a tournament.
The use of "useta" above is now historical fact. I stopped worrying about him when I learned how many fargin million (over $40MM!!) holy shit and how "He won the 2012 FedEx Cup with a victory in the season-ending Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club. Following this victory, he moved into the top ten of the Official World Golf Ranking..."
And, bless his heart, he got a copy of my novel, "The Cadet -- The Adventures of a New World Pioneer in the 17th Century". <-- We found out we have a staggering similarity. He saw the picture of me on the cover with the Amsterdam Militia outfit on... and we looked like mirrors separated by time.
