Amigas & Amigos – Happy New Year, this is the first Blog of 2015 and it is shaping up to be quite a year already.
I’m heading to Cabo in February for the 4th Annual Caboholics Convention and the grand opening of the Caboholics Store in downtown Cabo San Lucas by Caboholic Founders Johnny & Maddie Haney aka Mr. & Mrs. Corona. Membership is over 5300 of the wildest, tamest, fun loving people of the United States, Canada & Mexico. I’m honored to be a part of this group now for about four years; however this is my first convention. All kinds of activities will await from Booze Cruise with snorkeling, Fire Truck rides with beer drinking, Pub Crawls with Tequila shooting, visits to the Humane Society, Orphanage and that’s just the first two days. There is hiking of Sol Mar mountain, a bus trip to Los Santos to see the famous Hotel California, a fund raising dinner with silent auction for the humane society & boys club with many donating Sponsors including my Texas Amigo Chris Shuler’s new restaurant – La Palapa & Two for the Road owned by Amiga & Amigo Kathy & Marty Daniels who perform jazz nightly and I’ve been asked again this year to have another book signing there. My Bad Tequila is also a proud sponsor right alongside the Giggling Marlin, Cabo Blue, Wet Cactus, Wicked Pizza, Cabo Lounge, Cabo Cantina and Tanga Tanga, what great cantinas and bars to be affiliated and named with. Can’t wait, will post mucho photos when I post February’s Blog at the end of that short month.
Finally, I was able to go see Tiger Woods play in the flesh, first time I’ve seen him live at the Phoenix Open aka Waste Management at TPC Scottsdale and boy was I disappointed, good thing I went Friday because Eldrick Woods did not make the cut. I wanted to see him golf before he lost all of his teeth. Tiger’s front tooth was knocked out earlier this month by a photographer and his camera, not sure if ex wife paid for it to be done or not, so far they’re claiming accident; but, that is what he claimed when she took a nine iron to him after finding out about his whore lovers.
The Waste Management golf tournament was a riot, an extreme party on a golf course made up of mostly hot chicks that have never golfed and old frat boys that I hope never grow up. Thursday’s attendance which was the first day of the tournament set a new record of 118,436 eclipsing the old opening day record of over 30,000 golfing revelers and wanna be models or chicks that think they have what it takes to be married to a professional golfer. Lots of thirty something & forty something women looking for a new, high dollar man in their baby making years that are ticking away far too rapidly. On Friday morning I made my way to the 16th hole – loudest hole in golf where Tiger Woods made a hole in one in his appearance in 1996, I was there that day as well; but, chose to follow Phil Mickelson that day which turns out to be a mistake. My girlfriend at the time Patricia wanted to follow Tiger, but the crowds were so large that we decided against, been kicking myself ever since. So, I decided to wait for Tiger on the 16th hole in a shared suite with very rich and famous companions of Will Ferrell and Jimmy Fallon just a few seats away. Tiger was flustered, not smiling as usual and hardly acknowledging the crowd as he was having his worst golfing day as a professional where he shot 11 over for the day for an 82 and plus 13 for the two days which ended him in a tie for dead last – 132 players & he ties for 131st place with some guy I have never heard of, but probably have played golf with when I shot my best round ever on 4th of July, 1994 in Mesa, AZ in 109 degree weather. I drove through the sprinklers on most every hole to keep myself cooled on in route to a career best 77 which had I received that score on Friday I could have / would have beaten the great Tiger Woods by 6 strokes. Now, I know some of you mathematicians out there are saying, “hey, wait a minute 82 subtract 77 = 5 strokes.” Yes, but I was playing a 72 par course and Tiger a 71 par course with a nearly same slope rating.
Well enough of this golf stuff! That cool dude Brian Williams the reporter is everywhere I tell ya. He was at the Waste Management Open in Scottsdale helping Tiger Woods read putts and I'm almost sure I saw him on New Year's Eve at the Fiesta Bowl when Boise State made it 3 for 3 at University of Phoenix Stadium, this year against Arizona Wildcats. I am almost sure he will attend next month's 4th Annual Caboholics Convention in Cabo San Lucas. I'll be sure to have many pictures of him hangin' with most of us. Brian Williams, Tequila & MasterCard - everywhere YOU want 2 B!
Well, wait I have a story with pictures at the end about my Amigo in Green Valley, AZ – Manuel aka Abby that was playing in a golf tournament and discovered that someone had f-cked with his bag. Being that I’ve always wanted to be a Sherlock Holmes guy and since I was having beers and margaritas with Tiger since he didn’t make the cut, I tried my “Elementary Dear Watson” routine out and here is what I discovered and uncovered.
Justin Bieber - Never Say Never hooked me up with!
Hope You enjoyed the Saga! I think this should be a short story or a full length movie!
And now a message from Cliff to Norm of which You all should take heed!
