Yeah it makes me mad as a hornet. I made huge progress in not throwing my clubs anymore though LOL. This is a funny story - at least to me. My dad and I were playing golf - now mind you - my dad played in the Western open when he was younger. He played with Sam Snead - so my dad was a pretty damn good golfer. Anyhow - we were playing a course and my dad hit a terrible shot. He wound up and threw his club over a tree and almost beheaded a couple golfers. Then he tells me to go get it! I said no - you get it! Then he says GOD DAMNIT go get the club! To this day we laugh about it because he didn't have the balls to go face the people he almost killed. So then we stop off at a bar and dad always kept the pencil in his front shirt pocket. It must have slipped into his pack of cigs and he reaches for a cig - sticks the pencil in his mouth and goes to fire it up LOL!! I laughed so hard at him and then he started to laugh. I was probably 15 at the time so dad let me have a beer - it was a funny day and its provides great memories with my dad. My dad was so cool even though I was a handful as a kid. He liked that I was a spirited kid - Harry was WAY COOL!
