Swamp,
I will always regret not having had a camera handy at that crucial moment
of total immersion. Truly, the sight of the clubs, bag, cart, wallet, and
water bottle floating on the scummy water is burned into my memory. Equally
vivid, though, is your total commitment to carrying on. You waded into the
water, recovered gear, wrung out clothes, inventoried keys, cards, and
phone, and in short order, were back in the game. Should such a disaster
ever happen to me, I will strive to emulate your aplomb.
Congrats on a well-earned call sign.

KD,
Even I have to admit it was ugly. Pix under lock and key. Would be viral

“Swamp”,
I will regret to my very last days on this earth the fact that I missed
seeing you emerge from that smelly bog on such an historic day -- a day
that is indelibly burned into the memories of so many of our distinguished
colleagues.
The only saving grace for me is the coincidental (and blissful)
opportunity to avoid what undoubtedly will be years of professional therapy
that is going to be the destiny for so many of our hapless golf brethren
who will be spending countless sleepless nights trying to “unsee” a certain
striped green and yellow speedo….. (PLEASE…., no need to forward
pictures…..).
On second thought – am ok with all of this….. J
Anyway -- Congratulations and all the best,
KD

Ace,
I thought that I wrung out my pants where no one could see my speedo. I
do apologize to my grouping for the sustained injuries due to belly laughs
and rolling on the ground and to the fowl for the fowl words. My hepatitis
just cleared from the semi-toxic water just in time for Covid
Sounds like I will be purchasing beer not being in the uniform of the day
with a wrong Call Sign. Hope it takes as long to get my shirts as it does
for TBD Carl.
Thank you for sharing the official declaration of historic nature. I am
going to have to have a long talk with Petey now to retire the shirt. I
assume line outs with initials will not suffice for being in proper attire.
Carl,
Please go to the following site - freelists.org/list/sogagg. Enter
email(s) that you would like to send and receive SOGAGG email from,
subscribe, and verify confirmation email. Let me know if you get stuck.
Welcome to SOGAGG!

*OB,*
*Your SOGAGG colleagues wish to provide you news of an historic nature.*
*DECLARATION*
*Having spent the past five weeks in secret discussions relative to your
“unfortunate incident” while participating in a fully sanctioned SOGAGG
outing at Oaks North Golf Course and:*
*Whereby you, having disregarded the laws of nature and, ultimately
standard hygiene caused a perfectly good golf cart (and related contents)
to roll into a reportedly semi-toxic body of water, and*
*Whereby a large number of fowl present at the time on the surface of the
water were both fouled and traumatized by your loud and foul language, and*
*Whereby several members of your group sustained injuries associated with
this incident via pulled muscles while either laughing, rolling on the
ground, or both, and*
*Whereby you having removed your trousers to wring them out displayed a
green and yellow candy-striped Speedo with markings reading “Mr. Carlsbad
Beach Stud, Sixth Place, 1998,”*
*Therefore, it is proclaimed that we, the remaining members of SOGAGG do
hereby declare your “OB” call sign null and void and award you the new and
far more appropriate call sign of “Swamp.”*
*New shirts will be ordered and you will be expected to present yourself
attired in your new gear, even if they have not yet been delivered. It’s
expected that you are well aware of the penalty for not doing so.*
*You having been a Society member for many years will fully understand
that life’s experiences tend to create shifts of this sort. The Society
felt this decision relative to your “event” shall be classified as “a
no-brainer.”*
*Yours in the Society’s constant quest for everlasting embarrassment of
its members, I am,*
*/Ace*
