Re the last of the golf panels… One year when I was running* a golf league at work, I was asked to speak to one of the players who had a full minute’s worth of ritual he went through every time before attempting to strike the ball. Since he typically shot in the low 60s for nine holes, whatever group he was in was agonizingly slow.
* Whenever I find myself in an activity that depends on volunteer labor to take care of the scut work needed to keep things going, I eventually guilt myself into it for a while.Report
Given the title of the post — differing from Briggs’s title in one critical letter — I was expecting something entirely different for the cartoon.Report
A final thought from this… Briggs was clearly too easily distracted when he played. Golf and mathematics taught me to close out all but one thing for a while. In golf, it’s shutting out everything except me, and the ball, and the course. Maybe not even the course — it worked on the driving range as well, just me and this ball. In math, it’s shutting out everything except me and the unproven theorem.Report
