Mike,
You are definitely a full-fledged member, which I am sure you will come to
regret. We just need to find a good call sign for you. That seems to be causing
us some trouble, so please screw something up - it would help us a lot.
Oh by the way, we make these votes privately to Ace.

Warm Regards,
Rules

A colorful character. I vote "yes," even if I'm not yet a full fledged member.

SOGAGG Colleagues,
I direct your attention to the original email on this thread where Knockdown
has put forth Tug McGraw as a candidate for membership in our august group.
Historically, we’ve done this via private vote so there is no chance of a
biased result, which, with our group, would be highly unlikely but
regardless, this is the method we use.
Please provide your vote to me directly at any of the following email
addresses and do not include any other members in your reply:
· dwayne.junker@xxxxxxx
· dwayne-kay@xxxxxxx
· djunker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Once all votes are received, I will advise all hands. I will save all
voting emails in case anyone wishes to see them. Remember, it requires a
two-thirds affirmative vote to pass.
Take care,
/Ace

Subject: [sogagg] Nomination of Tug McGraw to SOGAGG
Fellow SOGAGGers,
It is with great pleasure (also with a bit of anxiety, comicality and
wonder....) that I now officially nominate Richard "Tug" McGraw to the ranks
of SOGAGGdom.
"Tug" (not the proposed SOGAGG callsign), has played with us a number of
times, and during these periods he has managed to:
· Drive his golf cart so deep into the woods that it had to be
retrieved by 5 other golfers (it should have been 8, but Divot was too busy
taking pictures, and the other two guys were laughing so hard that they were
completely useless -- unlike just-a-little-bit useless as members of this
group tend to be in their normal state -- but I digress…..)
· Attempted to give himself the "poor man's mudbath" while retrieving
an errant tee shot that went directly into the center of a crusted marsh (I
am happy to offer details on exactly what a "crusted marsh" is during the
Q&A…..). During this escapade he sunk completely up to his knees in the
(hideously) smelly "crusted marsh mud" (you won't find this on Wikipedia -
yet….). Always a trooper, he didn't call for help (obviously surmising that
none would be forthcoming), and again the laughter rendered otherwise
good-hearted Samaritans to a completely immobile state. It must be noted
that the pictures that have been circulating from this event were taken
AFTER his clean-up attempts with several golf towels (which I think he put
into OB's trunk, but again I digress…..)
· Other tee shots from Tug have found their way into (no specific
order), roofs, parking lots, yards, Jacuzzi's, crusted marshes, squirrel
dens, large raptor nests, nearby roads, far-away roads, golf carts in other
fairways, golf carts in other counties, daycare centers, press conferences,
buffet lines, etc……. Still on the list (but not yet achieved), include:
voting booths, libraries, Super Bowl stadium, and the White House
Correspondents Dinner.
These are just a few examples of his accuracy with a driver and as a
driver…… But who said that golf prowess was a prerequisite for membership?
(Certainly no one who has witnessed our play).
To wrap this up, if he is accepted, I would propose a callsign of "Hazard".
To quote a famous American philosopher (who happens to be the founder of
SOGAGG), "Tug is a Hazard to himself, to other golfers, to innocent
bystanders, and even to the surrounding natural environment……"
That's all I have for now. I stand ready to answer any questions that you
may have, except for the following (Sean Spicer has my back here):
· No questions on logarithms or the Periodic Table of the Elements.
· No questions on my tax returns (yes, I am writing off my losing golf
bets -- and will require your SSN along with Visa Card information when
payment is made)
· No questions regarding Global Warming as I think that President has
already made it clear what the facts are here J
OK. That's really all I have for now. Appreciate your careful
consideration of this matter.
Warmest wishes,
KD
