The original question was who never won all the majors
in his sport. I forget which one Palmer didn't get but
one could look it up.
OK, it's a fore-gone conclusion that I didn't know Arcaro was a golfer
nor Palmer never won all the majors in golf. I'm not tee-d off about it
tho.
According to the PGA, only Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary
Player, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods have accomplished
the feat.
Yes, the local historical association sells a T-shirt that reads
"Wake > Forest: Where the University Got Started". Amazing, how many people
think that the university is in the town.
In Boston, you get people wandering around dazed, looking
for Arlington, and to help them you first must determine if
they're looking for Arlington Street (downtown Boston) or
There's also Arlingtons in TX and VA.
There are bunches of them - city fathers are not
famous for imagination in naming, Truth or
Consequences notwithstanding. I have been in both
the towns you cite; but a bewildered tourist
looking around the hideous pit of Boylston Station,
one of the first two subway stations in the United
States and likely not renovated since its opening
120-odd years ago, is probably not going to want
directions to Arlington, Kentucky or Arlington,
Wyoming (okay, I made that up - Wyoming is one of
the few states that doesn't have an Arlington).
Arlington (a town a few miles north). Or "how do I get to
Harvard?" - the joke answer is "study hard" but doesn't
Same as "how do I get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice"
sort of joke.
Yeah. I met Claudia Cassidy in Carnegie Hall.
There's also a blink and you miss it Harvard, NY along Route 30 in NY,
not too far off Route 17. A family in the town of Andes had the last
name Harvard; their son got a scholarship to the school because there
was some distant connection.
There are a whole series of financial aids given
to people who have some peculiar characteristic
or other - a name, a school attended, an ancestor's
profession. It's quixotic but less unfair than the
buying of or cheating to get places at university
that is so much in the news lately.
If you're interested in the Alcotts/Allcotts, you want to
go there rather than Cambridge.
Semi interested; I read a lot of LMA's books when I was younger.
They spent their time a day's carriage ride west
of Cambridge.
Heck, I peaked around puberty.
But not in golf. (G)
No, in golf, I shot a 100-odd in my 20s, although on a
short course. That was the best I did.
I've played a few rounds of mini but don't remember any scores except
that they were never outstanding.
This wasn't mini, at which I was truly terrible.
This was a course designed for amateurs of a
certain lack of experience or ability, with elevated
tees, short (under a couple hundred yards) fairways,
and few if any hazards - I don't recall having fallen
into any, which means there may not have been any -
when I've "played" on a real course I've managed to
find just about every sand trap or puddle in sight
and once managed to get my ball wedged between two
cactuses.
We see a lot more of them thru text message pictures but, hey,
better > than not seeing them at all.
As with those relatives who aren't so close,
whatever works. It's fortunate for us that we
have different modes and avenues of communication
that can be opened and closed as needed.
More so than when we were growing up or bringing up our daughters.
Yeah, back then it was say it or write it.
Well, put a fiver in every week anyway.
Might do that to get some spending money for the trip. Or, grocery buying money, as the need may arise.
I don't practice quite what I preach anyway.
How many of us do? It is an idea to save for a trip, night on the town,
or whatever but usually the money is spent on something needed more
urgently.
I'm a believer in "mental health days," therapy
dollars, what have you.
but then I don't make blancmange. I even use thighs
in schnitzel, and, although the texture is quite
different, the flavor is more intense.
I'll still use the white meat for schnitzel.
If I have white meat, that's one of my preferred ways
of using it.
We've tried baking it, instead of frying--works quite well overall. It
keeps the stove top cleaner too. (G)
I've had mixed luck with oven substitutes
for frying. For me, higher heat than your
home oven can provide is stock-in-trade.
Title: Zuccini Schnitzel with Leeks,Peppers in Sour Cream
Sauce > It's one of the WWTT category recipies. (G)
Yep.
If, indeed, they were seriously thinking.
Or at all.
