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.

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

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
