Breakfast At Augusta

The non-traditional Sunday morning at the Masters. A ghastly weather forecast for Sunday afternoon moved up the schedule.

Since we were rooting for the Auburn Tigers last weekend we have to get behind Tiger again.

Meanwhile, why is Pelosi waltzing around Germany and today London, where she is meeting with Jeremy Corbyn?

Cory Booker: Releasing Migrants In Sanctuary Cities Would "Make Us Less Safe"

[Jane]

How so Cory?

Boy do they look dumb!

Cory Booker: Releasing Migrants In Sanctuary Cities Would "Make Us Less Safe"

To update Candice's statement: "It's pretty clear that they think black people AND white people are stupid!"

[MissMarple2]

Jane,

It's just amazing how President Trump can get them to reveal themselves.

I am enjoying this tremendously.

Gavin Newsome thinks it's inhumane? How humane was it for Obama to dump hundreds of thousands of So,alis in Minneapolis and Lewiston, Maine, climates for which they were totally unprepared?

It will make them less safe? Was there any concern about that before? No. We were told concern about illegals was racist.

Love the Puritans in the hanging scene. Tom R’s 1108 link.

Mrs. Buckeye's study of her Mayflower forefathers (Bradford, Atwood, Webb, Chandler and a ship hand Copeland) has lead to the conclusion that there was NO tolerance of "outliers".

Copeland had been raised Catholic.

Bradford had Copeland's ear cut off when he wouldn't convert.

America became a country of religious tolerance, but it didn't start out that way.

Looking forward to traveling to @FTBraggNC with the @SecondLady tomorrow so we can thank all service men, women & families for their bravery, sacrifices and all they do to keep us safe. #MonthoftheMilitaryChild

By the way, if you go to that article there is a photo where Melania is an entire head taller than Karen Pence.

Thanks so much for letting us know that lady corrected her tweet and the little boy from the Mall of America is still alive. When I saw that this morning my heart just sank.

LOL. I have the TV on The Masters (sound off), the iPad on the Liverpool v. Chelsea game (sound on), laptop on my lap, and iPhone next to me as I text my buddy in London who is a Chelsea season ticket holder. You might say I am totally digital today.

Breakfast at Augusta? I'll drink to that!! 🍹

4 of the last 5 players have landed in the drink!

[Narciso79]

Yes Bob baer described him in his memoir, he has since gone stark raving mad.

[Jane]

Looks like about 5 minutes Amom. Let Tiger even it up first!

[Jane]

He did it! Yippee!

[Stephanie Nene Not Your Normal Granma]

What do I win? :)

[Beasts of England]

It's gonna be a wet finish, but I think we're safe from lightning for a few hours. :)

Patrick Cantley is sneaking up on the leaders...

[Beasts of England]

Steak knives?

[anonamom]

Who said by one o' clock? ;-)

Just the "green" ran tho--they don't stop for that, right?
That's why there are those golf umbrellas.

That Weather Channel interactive still shows yellow not getting to Augusta til 3:00.

[Jim Eagle]

Patrick Cantlaynow leading at -12. UCLA kid.

[Jim Eagle]

Now Schauffele ties for the lead at -12. Can Tiger either eagle or birdie to tie or take the lead?

[Stephanie Nene Not Your Normal Granma]

Pfft. We didn't even get lightning here. So much for the vaunted climatologists predictions ( I think the weather reporting was more accurate when the vacuous blonde babes were doing the weather on local TV in the 70s). I was looking forward to a nice light show and some serious rumbling. :(

Steak knives? I'm rewarding myself with a quick run to the Diner for brunch for the best damn French toast and beignets outside of NO.

And a mimosa. or 3. It ain't your father's Diner.

[D]

Steph:
Sounds like a wonderful breakfast! Love mimosas!
Right down to the wire at the Masters.

[Jane]

Sheesh! This is amazing!

[Stephanie Nene Not Your Normal Granma]

And Gwinnett County has tornado warning. Between Lilburn and Snellville (Yikes - that's me). Doppler radar indicated.

I think I'll wait ten minutes to head out.

I love this administration.

[Beasts of England]

Even this late in the game, there are eight players who can win... Dare I say 'playoff'? ;)

[Beasts of England]

-11 in the clubhouse, baby!! Woot! ⛳️

[Jim Eagle]

DJ under the radar.

[Stephanie Nene Not Your Normal Granma]

2 miles north of me. Maybe on the ground... maybe not. Imprecisely precise.

[Jane]

Ugh!

[D]

Hillary calling for release of total Mueller report.
That this jerk is speaking up at all is troubling to me.
We need to counteract her lies and innuendoes with concrete facts that her campaign spied on Trump illegally.Both during the campaign and throughout the past two years of his presidency.
We must go on offense.
Waiting for the release of the report is standing still and not taking the the fight to these traitors.
No more waiting on reports and why is Coats still hanging on to unredacted transcripts of Brennan, Clapper and Comey testimony?

[Narciso79]

We already know what's in the report, every dead end they cheered in the times the post the journal and gannett.

[Captain Hate]

DJ, bitches.

Democrats are standing by helplessly while 3 freshman members of the House destroy the party.

If Democrats can’t rein in 3 junior members of their own party, how can the American people expect them to govern a country?

[Jane]

Get in the cellar Steph and away from windows!

[Jane]

Molinari in the water! Holy cow!

[matt - deplore me if you must]

As a former member of the bar, Mrs. Clinton should know better (salt added).

Going to meet an Australian shepherd that needs to be re-homed. Living in some poor dreary suburban cracker box in Irvine, where the people are all perfect and the children play video games all night. Querida is really missing Blue, but I don't know. Another rowdy Australian in the house may disturb my wa.

Will have to tune in the Masters for at least 10 minutes, I guess.

[D]

Narciso:
Good point.
I just don’t want their talking points to get the jump on the truth.Barr needs to move quickly to expose the actual spying and to name names.
I even hope Nunes just says who they are.
I know some don’t know they could be indicted but everyone needs to learn the guilty parties ‘ identities.

[D]

Steph:
Listen to Jane!
At the first sign of a warning, my sister heads straight for the basement.

[Captain Hate]

LOLinari!

[Stephanie Nene Not Your Normal Granma]

Danger has passed, Jane. It was easily visible on radar and north of me.

[Rocco]

Good Afternoon, Don't golf, don't tweet, don't facebook, drive a dodge! Al Bundy drove a dodge.

But the Forsythia'a are in bloom so it's time to kill the crabgrass.

It gets me to Michigan every summer.

Go Tiger GO!!!!

[Jim Eagle]

Having my first Caipirinha of the season to celebrate our 80+F and humidity today. Molinari almost washed another one. Tiger makes bird at 16, then its all over but the crying unless he gets in trouble or 17 or 18.

Whovever Tiger's physical therapist was/is should also get a green jacket:)

[Buckeye]

Molinari checking to see if he can get the down stroke on the Ferrari back:)

[Jim Eagle]

Anyone recognize that damn bird?

[Stephanie Nene Not Your Normal Granma]

[Beasts of England]

Booyah, baby!! Best Masters EVAH!

[Jim Eagle]

Beasts, I take it you weren't around in 1986:)

[henry]

Trump:

Great Masters going on right now. @TigerWoods is leading with 2 holes left to play. Very exciting, tune in!

[Beasts of England]

I'm enjoying some irrational exuberance, JiB!! :)

[Captain Hate]

It's gotta crush the libs that DJT and Eldrick like each other.

[MissMarple2]

henry,

Ha! I KNEW he would be watching!

[Jane]

Beasts,

I do think it's the Best Masters Ever! And I've pretty much watched every one since I was a kid. Thought that earlier but wondered if it was just because Tiger was back!

[Beasts of England]

His comeback is magical, Jane. Fourteen years between Masters wins and eleven years between major victories. This is yuge. :)

[D]

Jane:
Very competitive Masters this year. Some very good golf being played.

[Jim Eagle]

Well, Jane, most golf historians will disagree with you. Nicklaus' win in 1986 was historic. He started 4 shots behind Seve. Was 46 years old, and shot a 30 on the back nine to win by one. He also had his son as his caddie. Tiger isn't there in any category yet.

[anonamom]

Note--Tiger never won a major under Obama

[Captain Hate]

Some very good golf being played.

Not really; other than the Big Cat everyone else is turding it up. I can be happy for Tiger in a MAGA way.

[Jane]

Sheesh you guys are wet blankets.

[jimmyk]

everyone else is turding it up

A bit harsh, CH. Xander and DJ shot lower rounds than Tiger. Unless Tiger birdies 18.

[Manuel Transmission]

While youse guys are watching golf , I just loaded 12.2 on my phone and cut/paste finally works again after, what?, 9 months? What a stupid bug to last that long.

[Beasts of England]

Not me, Jane!! :)

Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!! ⛳️

[Captain Hate]

The other leaders faded badly, jimmyk. For DJ it was too little too late and featured his typically rushed putt on 18 when he still had a chance to add some pressure.

[peter]

What is the reason everyone is so excited about Tiger Woods winning? ( I don't follow golf much.)

[Beasts of England]

Look at that SMILE!! Wow! 😂

[Jim Eagle]

It's 2:30 in Augusta. Where is the vaunted weather? I thought it was to be there before the finish?

Congrats Tiger. Great victory,

[Beasts of England]

He's never been happier in his life... :)

Does this mean they will have to lengthen the course again, or grow the rough, narrow the fairways, apply bikini wax to the greens?

[anonamom]

WOW! WOW!!!! WOW!!!!

[GUS]

UNBELIEVABLE.

[Jane]

Peter,

It's been 11 years since he won the Masters and 8 years since any tournament. No one thought he would ever come back. He went thru a lot of hell that was self inflicted and then a bunch of big surgeries on his back. No one ever thought he'd come back!

[anonamom]

What a testament to PERSERVERANCE!!!

And health!!!!

[Marlene]

Okay,I've got tears in my eyes. :)

[peter]

thanks for the explanation, Jane, I did not know about his back surgeries.

[Momto2]

Great Masters ending and the weather cooperated!
Happy for Tiger Woods! Loved the embrace with his son at the end.

[sbwaters]

Bikini wax! He got thrown off the broadcast team for that.

[Jane]

Truly truly GREAT victory and an incredible fight! Love you Tiger. Now on to The OPEN!
