Are you suggesting that golf competitors lower their career ambitions to fighting each other over who gets more caddies and the better parking lot spot?

I think with those iron bars at hand they should wear some protection. A helmet at least, imagine getting a vicious clubbing on the head from an investment banker/Andy... yikes.

Then it would be a lamer version of polo.

What if they also had to swim during?

Say, Kate -- I noticed that you have a local pub called The Maxwell's Plum.

Reason being that the famous The Maxwell's Plum was kind of an infamous (so I heard, I didn't live through it ) orgy of food and sex in Manhattan and, for a short time in 1981, San Francisco. Movie stars, singles bar, etc., etc. Not sure if that's how your more modest beer joint got its name though...

Good point about the clubs. I could see a 7-iron coming quite handy when a grad student wants to go all Theodore Streleski on his advisor.

Helmeted water polo? Interesting.

Dare I ask how you know this? But I can't imaging whoever it was thought the name up on their own, but I wish this one were the same. I keep accidentally calling it the Maxwell's Silver Hammer.

With heavy sticks. Like some kind of under water ice hockey.

I came across a reference to it watching, of all things, an old episode of Match Game '74 (among the ridiculous ways I spend my time as a Man of Leisure). The question was "Maxwell's ____", and a couple celebrities mentioned The Maxwell's Plum. So I did a Google search to look it up, and the only active reference to the name is in your neck of the woods. Though no relation to the place all the game show celebs were talking about -- which apparently closed in the 1980s.

Cause I'm an iChump.

Does he golf?

Only when being chased by Elin Nordegren with a golf club.

Great Taste or Less Filling?

What do you guys think of this watch? Especially the price? It's about $60.

Far too '14 year old trying to look sophisticated/sport' IMO

Seems alright. I like Fossil watches, but their support for their product lines suck. I don't wear watches and haven't in some 30 years. But I do occasionally carry a pocket watch. My brother got me a cool Fossil pocket watch. But when one of the pins went on it to hold the chain on a couple years later, Fossil had discontinued the line and couldn't get a replacement part. They were cool in that they replaced it with another watch instead, but that watch was lame by comparison and I ended up with both a broken watch and a lame watch. I probably won't buy from Fossil again for those reasons.
