I do. I’ve had problems sleeping for years and finally decided to do something about it. I visited a Doctor last week and was sent to a sleep clinic. They put sensors all over my body and monitored me for a night. It was something different to say the least.
My results didn’t show any major [...]

Who Needs Sleep?
X-Out Golf Balls
Ever wonder exactly what an X-Out golf ball is? Why are they sold so cheap?
X-Outs are name-brand golf balls on which that brand has been stamped out, usually with a row of X’s, because of imperfections in the ball. Those imperfections are often cosmetic in nature, and usually so small as not to be noticeable. [...]

Sasquatch Siting
I’ve written about the Nike Sasquatch driver before, but I finally saw it in person this weekend for the first time when I was at Dick’s Sporting Goods. The driver has one of the biggest heads on a golf club that I’ve ever seen, but it’s one of the lightest drivers I’ve held in my [...]
Submit Your Card Tricks
I’m looking for new tricks to post at the Card Tricks site. If you have something you’d like to submit, get in touch.
Slowing Down
Thursday night I went to a sleep clinic to try and figure out my sleeping problems so Friday was going to be a sick day until a storm hit and SVSU closed for the day anyways. After getting home around 6:30am I decided to play some poker for a few hours. Big mistake!
I went to [...]
Sorenstam, Creamer, and Wie Rank 1, 2, and 3
The first Woman’s World Golf Ranking came out this morning. Sorenstam at the top of the list was no surprise. Having Michelle Wie debut at the third position was a bit odd since she has only played in 15 tournaments during the past two years, which is the time period used for the ranking. It’s [...]
Nickels and Dimes
I’m still playing the $5/10 limit games on Party Poker. I haven’t played more than two tables at a time yet, but might try 3 or 4 soon. I’m feeling more and more comfortable with the stakes of play. The biggest differences from the lower limit games are there are more opportunities to steal and [...]
Hybrid Clubs
Travelling Golfer pointed out an article from Pub Links Golfer Magazine Online about hybrids. In today’s market, the hybrid clubs are quickly becoming a popular part of most golf club sets. Last year I replaced 3 of my long irons with hybrids and experienced great results. You’ll want to read the article for the full [...]
Watch Your Cart
I just went to purchase ER – The Complete Fourth Season from Amazon and made it all the way to the final step of checkout before realizing my total was over $1,500! My first thought was “That’s an expensive DVD.” Then I realized I still had an Apple iMac G5 in the shopping cart from [...]
Self Improvement
I’ve written about being satisfied before and some of my recent posts have hinted at at the fact that I’m not satisfied with myself. In the last couple of weeks I’ve started more changes in my life than at any other time. I’ve attempted to make similar self improvements before and always ended up reverting [...]
Moving Up
I usually try to keep my bankroll around $3,000 and if it gets much higher I pull some money out of Neteller for investments, bills, and whatever else. 300 big bets is the recommended bankroll for limit poker, so I’ve had the roll to play $5/10 for over a year. Scared? Most likely.
Catch the Golf Fever
It seems like every year around February I start to get a case of golf fever. Thanks to our lovely Michigan weather, my last round of golf was on September 17th, which is almost 5 months ago. It seems like an eternity now that I count up the months.
The PGA Tour gets back into the [...]
James Blunt – Back to Bedlam
I’ve really been enjoying James Blunt’s album Back to Bedlam.
Get Fit
Two weeks ago my weight topped out at 197 pounds. Right then I knew it was time for some changes. I’d hit 195 before, but for some reason the 7 on the end affected me a lot more. It’s only 3 pounds away from 200, which I never hope to hit, even in my later [...]
Super Sunday
More like shitty as far as the Super Bowl went. I didn’t see the National Anthem, but I heard it from the other room and I swear my ears started to bleed. The refs continued their string of horrible calls in the 2006 playoffs by screwing Seattle out of a touchdown that anyone could see [...]
Super Bowl Weekend
I played a little poker over the weekend. I also played a little poker about as bad as I could.
Before the Super Bowl we ran a couple of mini $5 tournaments. In the first tournament I was the first one out of 4 people. It only took two hands. The second time around I was [...]
Taking Time Off
I’ve taken way too much time off from posting here at Primary Rough. I seemed to have started the blog and only kept at it for a couple of weeks. I never meant to post daily, but I sure meant to post more than once ever couple of months!
Speaking of time off, it looks like [...]
