What about the Big Donkey Kuchar? Hee haw, hee haw, hee haw…

Come on man! Here’s the deal, I could kick Kuchar’s butt like I did Corn Pop that year when I lost my Johnson, but you got to be real and here’s the deal, I don’t know what that was, but when we look to the future and don’t see something, it’s like well, anyway, something I said back in 2002 and you know when I ran for President, but being a United States Senator is the same when you lie about your family having coal miners, but that hurt me, even though I know I don’t tell the truth because the folks can’t handle the truth, but it makes them like me, because I did the deed and made peace that day, or something like that when I talked to President Harris about it. Oh, well…

Is TM still in business? Losing staffers like crazy, Can’t fulfill product in a reasonable time frame (p7MC and 790 orders August.). Well at least they got Serigio back after losing Rahm and Day.

If he’s using a TM Mini driver I hope that means Callaway are bringing back the 3Deep (or actually making a retail PhrankenWood)

Would be nice to see the flatstick back in their line-up in some form or another as well.
