    New to the Group

    Just wanted to introduce myself, my name is Mark and I have played golf since I was 7. Played throughout high school and for the first two years of college before I was ruled ineligible for my last two years since I entered the PGA of America.

    Welcome to the forum Mark. Nice to see an American member. This is a great site to shoot the breeze, buy/sell/swap clubs etc.
    You will enjoy the company here.

    He's got nothing to worry about with you IM. You are too nice of a person. At worse if you sic Indio on him Indio will bore him to death with his silly and not very humourous banter. Which in the end will eventually lead to Indio ending up on the couch again.

    Definately a nice guy, just a bad influence. Like I said before, guilty by association. That's what you get for hanging out with "Richard", Indio and the likes.

    But, but, but Wilster, Zoic and lms have been my foursome members for the last two weeks......surely that buys me some brownie points

    I even picked my man Zo up at home so he wouldn't have to drive on that sad excuse of a spare tire he has on his car

    It helps, but the bad seeds that are Indio and "Richard" far outweigh any brownie points you've earned hanging out with Wilster and Zoic. You'd have to at least play with them for a couple of months.

    But very nice gesture picking up Zoic, I'm sure he appreciated it, not having to drive to the course on his rim again.

    After the display that I put on at EC last weekend I can't see that happening

    To make a long story short, lets just say that I lived up to my name

    Mark, pay no attention to MR CLANK & SHANK JOHNSTON I mean c'mon, I am a BUM, how much trouble can I cause?

    PS, Watch the For Sale/Trade/Want Section, the above mentioned gentleman seems to be a major poster in that section He does more deals than a good hooker does on a Saturday night

    Ignore Golfbum, he's just bitter that he's left the ranks of club hodom and is mad that his better half will not let him return.

    Not true not true Mr Johnston. My wife did not even know I had entered the Club Hodom. Therefore she would not know that I had left I left because I came to my senses. what was the point of having all those clubs when I could only use 14 at a time?
    Besides, I have no need to seek and search for clubs to improve my game. I realize it is not the clubs it is the guy swinging them. Now you my good friend might want to sit down and think about that one for a moment
    Besides, I am likely the only guy in Canada that has MINT SET OF TNT GRINDERS, you know those irons played by Dave Barr when he was with TNT

    Hey, welcome to Canuckland Mark! I just noticed all the thread banter and thread jacking going on in here! Didn't notice the abuse poor little ole me was taking in here but I will settle this little oversight 'RFN'.... again, welcome and trust me, the Moderator called Geoff in here, is definitely a little out in left field so you will have to forgive him. He even gets to hide his own Easter Eggs

    Oh, now I see why they let you contibue to play with thm for the past couple of weeks, you had the wheels! Now it is all making sense! At first I thought pity or sympathy gesture on their part. Now it is making sense

    Where is the shocking headline in that for CNN? Everyday common occurance that everyone is aware of, no news there.
