You ROCK.
( **Esprix** , keep your pants on.)
**Odie** told me tonight of a nice thing he’s doing. No details, sorry, they’ll come out later - but for now, let it suffice to say that **Odieman** plain old ROCKS.
He’s always here, unassuming, adding a deep thought here, a glib comment there, and almost always making me smile. He can’t help it if he lives in Saskatchewan 😉
Thanks, **Odie**. You’re cool.

Odie is the bee’s knees.

Before this thread gets overrun with flowers, puppies, butterflies and robins, let me just say that I hate his guts.
In my golf thread, he told me he broke 100 a couple weeks before I did, and that’s just plain cruel.
If he apologizes, maybe I’ll like him a little.

Sorry to hear that Slip, Odie is a man among manly men.
You’re okay too, how can you help it being a Canuck and all…
I won’t even mention that I was playing scratch golf before I retired the clubs… then you’d hate me too.

I feel for you, \*\*Feynn.[b/] Everybody hates a scratch golfer.
We have a few at The Swamp, and you can see them at the clubhouse, sitting alone, with their backs against the wall, to ward off a possible sneak attack on their blind side.
Their faces are a pasty gray, and they have a hunted look about them. They know they’re living on borrowed time.
Occassionally, one will mysteriously disappear. Nobody ever talks about it.
Glad you came to your senses and hung up the irons.

Oooo, an appreciate Odieman thread!
He is one of the nicest guys I’ve met around here. Always dropping in with a kind word. I appreciate that, especially since I’m really bad at it.
Go Odieman!!!
And hey, Weyburn’s **gotta** be at least semi-cool. Not only does Odie live there, it has the [Turner Curling Museum](http://www.compusmart.ab.ca/nplooy/turner.htm) in it. It just reeks of Canadiana - or something. 😃
[sub]Wierdly enough, I’d go see it if I was in the area…[/sub]

Slip, come this spring I will once again be lacing up the spikes, donning the glove, and venturing out onto the fairway with Tommy Armours in hand. Believe it or not, it will be part of my job… heh heh heh … getting paid to golf… bwa ha ha ha ha…
You just gotta hate me now…

I don’t want to brag in Odieman’s appreciation thread, but… I shot 88 at Cougar Creek Golf course last week…
[sup]but then I kinda blew up on the back nine.[/sup]
For those who don’t know, **Odieman** is the _real_ arbiter of hip and cool. 🆒

That’s all I have to say. 😃

Woohoo!! A great thread for a great guy.
He never fails to make me laugh and cheer me up, especially with everything going on lately and before that. And he knows his birds and his music! What a cool guy.
Odieman - all the more reason to like Canada (as if I didn’t already). If only he/Canada weren’t so far away.

Of course he does, that’s why we captured him as a Moderator.

Yup, he rocks. And I’m not gonna do a golf hijack
Fierra, failing to see what speeding in a Volkswagon has to do with anything…

**Lolagranola** - I don’t think he’s awake yet: time zones, ya know.
And I’m not a very good golfer. I finally got the loop down pat, but the windmill is still giving me headaches.
