My husband loves to play golf. He even loves to watch it. So in looking for the perfect Father’s Day gift I came across some golf video tips that he might like. He learned the game from his grandfather, and the last time he talked to a pro, he was told that he had very good form. My husband also got some very expensive new clubs. They are so technologically advanced that last month, he actually made a HOLE IN ONE!!!

So learning to Practice Like a Pro is something that I am sure he would love. He already told me which golf balls to get for him. I am not even actually sure I got the right ones. I could not believe how many there were to choose from, but none that actually seemed to fit the description he gave me! But if I choose to order from the Practice Like a Pro website, I can get him a series of practice videos that will cover such techniques as the short game, the scoring clubs, putting and drills and tips. There is also a bonus video showing practice rounds with tour pros putting the tips into practice. I think it might be something he could enjoy and learn from.

Last week my son was called out of class and told to report to a certain room. There were several other students there. They were given a card with a name on it. His said Ryan __________ NASA. The students were then told that they would be escorting the community member named on his/her card during the Career Fair. They would miss a little of class time, but had to report back to class when not actually escorting their visitor. The students were nominated by a teacher. We joked that our son was nominated by one of his least favorite teachers! Today is the Career Fair. I am excited to hear how it went.

I had read a few weeks ago about the trend of movie watching. I am not as big a movie fan as many people I know. I do Watch movies but not very often. And often I don’t enjoy the way they are portrayed (too much violence, too much sex, too much bad language, too….) But the article I was reading talked about how fewer and fewer people are watching movies on TV, including cable channels. They are instead opting to Watch movies online . I find that interesting. I guess it’s easier for some folks. But for me I wonder how comfortable that would be. I like the bigger screen and just making myself comfy while I watch. Maybe younger people these days are just more used to the computer so it’s just as comfortable for them to watch movies online. I even found a site where you can choose which movies you want to watch online. You can find the highest rated movies, the latest movies or search by genre.

In line with this trend, I saw a commercial on TV the other day for…watching TV! It seems that more and more people must be turning to the internet for their viewing habits for there to even be a commercial like that!
