Michael Jordan Celebrity Invitation Gone From Bahamas

Every January for the past few years, I would look forward to the Michael Jordan Celebrity Invitational Golf Tournament on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. However after a ten year run, it has moved to Las Vegas. Pictured about are some of the souvenirs that I acquired during my stints as a caddy. I had a great time at it.

Summer Time, and Missing Golf in the Boreal Forest

I have played some PGA rated golf courses in my life. Playing a challenging course is a lot of fun. However, when I just want to relax, I play a small nine hole golf course cut through the boreal forest back in the sticks. It is my favourite golf course for just relaxing.

It is called Blue Heron, and it is located near Lanark, Ontario, Canada. It is a short course. Being in the tropics, I miss the golf. Summer in the Bahamas is hot and stinky. The courses all charge ridiculous fees to play golf and I don't play much in the tropics.

Here are a few photos from the course:

If you find any balls on the course marked "The One & Only Ocean Club", then you will know that they are mine.

Brian Baumgartner -- Golf Club Levitation

Look closely at the picture below. It is of actor Brian Baumgartner who plays Kevin Malone at the fictional company Dunder Mifflin, on the television show "The Office". He is playing golf in the Bahamas.

I just noticed this pic yesterday in my archives. Do you see anything weird?


It appears that Brian is studiously concentrating and levitating his golf clubs. Check out the graphic below:
The clubs are not connected to his hands and are just hanging in mid air. (The blue line going through the picture is a rope demarcating the fairway that is in the foreground).

Actually, what I think happened, is that the camera caught him dropping his clubs, but the timing is perfect.

If this in fact is a levitation and Brian Baumgartner takes this act on the road, I want royalties.
