Lowry Wins The Open
Last updated on: July 21, 2019 at 11:16 am By Kermit Zarley
Shane Lowry increased his four stroke lead starting the day to six at the end by shooting a one over par 72 in very windy conditions to win the British Open on his home turf in Ireland. It was such a fitting win for the native Irishman and the Irish fans. This championship had not been contested in Ireland for 68 years. The Irish patrons were glorying with their chants and songs to support their fellow mate as he strode... Read more

Shane Lowry Leads the British Open with One Round to Go
Last updated on: July 20, 2019 at 1:12 pm By Kermit Zarley
Native Irishman Shane Lowry took charge today in the British Open at Portrush, Ireland, by posting an eight-under par 63, a course record. It gave him a four-stroke lead over Brit Tommy Fleetwood. So, Lowry has a 16-under par total of 197 on the par 71 course, with Fleetwood at 12-under par. Shane Lowry is in search of his first major win. His current position is reminiscent of the PGA Championship at Oakmont in 2016. That is where he had... Read more

Holmes and Lowry Lead British Open Half-way Through
Last updated on: July 19, 2019 at 4:03 pm By Kermit Zarley
The USA’s J. B. Holmes and Ireland’s Shane Lowry were tied for the lead in the 148th British Open golf tournament after two rounds of play at eight-under par 134 at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Portrush, Northern Ireland. Nipping at their heels, one stroke back, are England’s Lee Westwood and Tommy Fleetwood. Major champions’ hot stick Brooks Koepka is three strokes behind the leaders, in eighth place. While several of the best pro golfers in the world were right... Read more

Baffoons Argued Against Trump Saying “2 Corinthians”
Last updated on: July 16, 2019 at 5:44 pm By Kermit Zarley
Journalist Tim Alberta’s new book, American Carnage, is about Donald Trump taking over the Republican Party, thus making it “the Trump Party.” Alberta interviewed about 200 people, many of them Republican politicians, as the basis for this thesis. In this book, Alberta recalls a speech Donald Trump made during his election campaign in 2016 at the Republican-endorsing Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. It is the largest of all U.S. Christian colleges. In this speech, Trump said literally “Two Corinthians” rather... Read more

UNESCO Declares Babylon a World Heritage Site
Last updated on: July 11, 2019 at 9:47 am By Kermit Zarley
UNESCO–the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization–recently added 29 new locations to its World Heritage List of now over 1,000 sites throughout the world. This designation guarantees their preservation as the greatest sites in the world. Among these new 29 designations are the ruins of the ancient city of Babylon. This site is located next to the city of Hillah in central Iraq. It is on the Euphrates River and about fifty miles south of Bagdad, which is the... Read more

No More Bibles Published?
Last updated on: July 10, 2019 at 12:33 am By Kermit Zarley
CBS News online reports that President Trump’s proposed and impending 25% tariffs on a bunch more Chinese imports, including paper products, would massively reduce the printing of Bibles in the U.S. The reason is that Bibles are printed on extremely thin paper with sophisticated machines. About thirty years ago, the largest Bible publishers in the U.S.–HarperCollins owns Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, which publishes 38% of Bibles sold in the U.S.–moved their Bible print business to China, so that they have...

Trump Doral Strip Club Golf Tournament
Last updated on: July 9, 2019 at 11:57 pm By Kermit Zarley
Donald Trump bought Miami’s famed Doral Hotel and Golf Resort in 2012. He renamed it Trump National Doral Miami. The PGA Tour had the Doral Open in late winter every year there for over fifty years. It was one of my favorite venues on Tour. I loved to stay at this nice hotel and not have to drive a car, or be driven, to the course. But I also liked the golf course and usually the warm weather. I had... Read more

Charles Darwin’s Beliefs About Religion
Last updated on: July 10, 2019 at 9:41 pm By Kermit Zarley
I was just reading the last chapter of Charles Darwin’s book, On the Origin of Species. Published in 1859, it is regarded as the foundation of evolutionary biology. He teaches in it that natural selection is the cause of the development of the species. This book became a focus of many public debates between religion and science in the English-speaking world during the latter half of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century. It is one of the most important books... Read more

Matthew Wolff Wins 3M Championship
Last updated on: July 7, 2019 at 5:03 pm By Kermit Zarley
Strange-swinging, long-hitting, twenty-year old Matthew Wolff took the PGA Tour by storm today by winning the 3M Championship by one stroke with a twenty-five foot eagle putt from off the green on the last hole at TPC Twin Cities golf course in Blaine, Minnesota. Wolff, as a member of Oklahoma State University’s mens golf team, had just won the individual NCAA championship six weeks earlier and then turned pro. Wolff and twenty-two year old Collin Morikawa were paired together in... Read more

Bone Spur Trump Promotes Military on July 4th
Last updated on: July 4, 2019 at 11:59 pm By Kermit Zarley
It appears that President Donald Trump avoided the military draft during the Vietnam War when a doctor claimed he had bone spurs on his heels. I believe he simply got a doctor to lie about this to get the draft deferment. I’ve blogged about this multiple times. Last year, the two daughters of that doctor, who is now deceased, said this rumor about Donald Trump’s bone spur(s) circulated around metro-New York City for decades, and it is true. (Trump has never... Read more
