HELLO golfing friends. Before anything else, I would like to make a slight correction in last week's article.
It was stated, under my name, that I was a golf widow. I felt like pulling someone's hair--someone from the newspaper who was responsible for that error!
I am not a golf widow! In fact, I am not even married and have never been married. BUT, I am thankful though, about the "golf widow" error. It gave me a reason to let everyone know that I am still single…and available. (hahaha!) A golf widow? I don't think I will be one, but, I will probably make someone a golf widower someday.
Okay, okay, serious talk now. What is a golfaholic? My definition of a golfaholic is a person who is obsessed with golf, one who is a golf addict, one who is crazy about golf, one who plays golf often, and one who dreams and thinks of golf all the time.
Last week, in my column, I asked a question--"You are a golf addict if..."
I mentioned that I will publish the answers in my next article, so here they are"
You are a golfaholic "if you can't break 100, but you still think you could give Tiger Woods a few good tips." (anonymous)
You are a golfaholic "when you name your baby `Tiger,' `Annika,' `Vijay,' `Arnold' or `Michelle.'(anonymous)
You are a golfaholic "if you yell FORE in your sleep!" (Randy Morgan)
You are a golfaholic "if you use a golf tee instead of a tooth pick." (Patrick pkmurphy219)
You are a golfaholic "if you're more passionate with your putter than your wife." (anonymous)
You are a golfaholic "when you think the dimples on your Pinnacle are cuter than the dimples on your mate." (Mary marysofairy)
You are a golfaholic "when you go to sleep with balls on your mind." (Kirsten J)
You are a golfaholic "when you always want to `play a round'." (get it?) (Kirsten J)
You are a golfaholic "when your living room is a putting green." (Linda thisgirlluvsgolf)
You are a golfaholic "when you can convince your boss that you're leaving work early (wearing golf clothes) to meet with an important client, and get away with it." (Nuts4Putts)
You are a golfaholic "if your house is on fire, and you save your golf set first before your wife." (anonymous)
You are a golfaholic "if you use a golf bag as a purse?" (Patrick pkmurphy219)
You are a golfaholic "if you get to the golf course at 6am when your tee time is at 10am, even though the weather forecast is for all day thunderstorms." (anonymous)
You are a golfaholic when "you teach your kids to spell numbers like this - one, two, three, fore." (Patrick pkmurphy219)
You are a golfaholic "if your wife is in labor and you offer to drop her off at the hospital on the way to the golf course." (anonymous)
You are a golfaholic "when you sleep with your putter." (Mike bbreff)
You are a golfaholic "when you yell fore when you drop a fork in the kitchen." (Randy Morgan)
You are a golfaholic "if you know there's more to life than golf, but you're not interested in finding out what it is.' (anonymous)
Special attention must be given to golfaholics. This is a serious matter. If they are not allowed to play, they will get irritated, agitated, become a nuisance, notice you shop a lot, notice all the wrong little things you do. Let them play so you will be blessed with rewards, like more shopping money. If you haven't asked for it, it's time you demand it!
