Thank you everybody for a very successful tournament. Switching courses from San Marcos to Bear Creek a week before the event did not faze Annual Partee players. You all did an excellent job. Also, Thanks to Bill McCullough for stepping up to collect the prize fund when Ben and Harley were late and for Tim and Karen for the quick turnaround in calculating the winning scores.

Meau Bell announced that there should be a weight limit for players, but seeing Jerome Daniels getting ready kick ass, changed his tune and said bad idea. That's what I call a flip- flopping liberal.

Mike Schmidt is a good kisser according to Sue Thew. Asked if Neil Herslow was a good kisser too, but Sue said she didn't know. Neil tried, but he couldn't jump high enough and there was no telephone book for him to stand on to reach for a kiss.

Debbie Williams and Phil Carlyle settled their differences peacefully. Last time they played together, Debbie was ready to bitch slap him for cussing and throwing his clubs. Peace is a beautiful thing, but I was close enough to see that Phil's mouth was duck taped and his club was duck taped to his hands.

Barbara Fitzgerald complained that we keep messing her name up with Fitzpatrick, or is it the other way around. I'm confused, but Ben said to keep using Fitzpatrick because she wins more when we use Fitzgerald.

The Annual Newsletter has no political affiliates, but Harley Cogswell feels that there are several issues that the newsletter should promote. Asked which issue is the most important to him, per Harley, “the issue that gives women the right to laugh in any language they want.” Thanks Harley. This does sound like a very important issue and women should laugh in any language like the men. I laugh in 2 languages myself.

First I want to express my appreciation to everyone who attended my 50th birthday party that my Wife and closest friends gave me and my son (who turned 17). I was totally surprised to see the number of friends whom I have always respected and enjoyed spending good times with. When you have family and friends coming as far as Texas and California to celebrate my milestone. Words cannot express the feeling I had and still have. It was overwhelming. Then we have the Vaita's, Cartago's, Cogswell's, O'Pry and Salsaldana who helped my wife Leona plan and orchestrate the entire activity. There were a little less than 200 friends and family who attended the party. Many of you brought gifts and I appreciate that, but the best gift you can ever give me is your friendship. Thank you so much.

Secondly, I want to thank everyone who participated in our raffle drawing. We gave away 8 rounds of golf for Gold Canyon Dinosaur which was compliments from Gold Canyon. We also gave away 2 tickets to the Cardinals NFL football game donated by Jerome Daniels. Thanks to Jerome Daniels and Gold Canyon, we raised $468. This money will be used to purchase another Laptop replacing the laptop stolen at the end of our tournament at Gold Canyon back in September. The new laptop will be available by our next tournament. Again, thanks for your support.

Our next tournament is at Gold Canyon Golf Resort Sidewinder golf course. The course look and feels like a Troon course. If you have not played this course, you should seriously consider playing in this tournament and save a few bulks on green fees. What's nice about The Annual Newsletter is, if you
can't play in our team building experience, you can read about what you missed. The Gold Canyon Annual Par Tee golf tournament is AT&T, IBM, Schwab, Honeywell, and friends year ending tournament so we hope to see you there. Again Thanks for making my 50th Birthday a memorable one.

Your Friend,
Ed T

Dear Neal,
We cannot give out the names of our members especially the editor's name. Rumor has it that Jerome Daniels is the editor, but I'm not sure. If you do talk to Jerome, remember to say, “thank you, now please let go of my neck.”

Dear Sam,
When a person turns 50 years old, will they still be able to do the thing,,,I mean perform like the young folks do.
Signed,
Older and Wiser

Dear ED,
The answer is no. You cannot do the thing or perform like the young folks do. You are older and wiser and that with 50 cents will get you a bus ride to Awahtukee. Just kidding buddy. You are a well oil machine at the peak of your prowess. You know how to score at will, unlike the young folks who are still kicking field goals.

Dear Sam,
I would like to know why we don't play during the months of December and January. The weather is perfect in Arizona unlike anywhere else, so we need to take advantage of this to play golf all year round. Signed, Golf Year Round

Dear Golf,
The Annual Partee is a family oriented club. We take December and January off to be with family. Our only rule is for players to go home and have wild sex with their loved one is meant to build and promote strong relationships. The club's official document is the word “fun” which is in President Ed's communication when he sends the invite for every tournament. We wanted to raise some funds so that the club could have a year-end party, hence the product Dick and Jayne Soap, but that is on hold for the moment. The only product we know how to sell at this time is “fun” playing golf, “once a year every month.”
