Nick Taylor of Canada just won the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am at the famed Pebble Beach Golf Links in Monterey, California, by four strokes with a 19-under over Kevin Streelman, with Phil Mickelson one stroke back of Kevin in third place. The Stoic Taylor, who doesn’t seem to let anything bother him with his intense concentration, looked like he would set the throttle on cruise control starting the back nine today, having a five stroke lead over Phil Mickelson, who...

This week I received my third USPTO patent for my trademarked Triangle Book (“self-supporting book”) invention. This is quite an achievement for me since I had given up on this project for nearly three years. After eight years, my daughter and I are about to restart our non-exclusive licensing campaign for the Triangle Book format to book publishers. But this time we have two offerings for them: a book format to license and a bookstand to sell. I’m psyched! Yes,... Read more
Nick Taylor shot a 66 today to take a one stroke lead in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am over the aging, superstar, lefty Phil Mickelson, a five-time winner of this event, who scrambled like crazy at Pebble Beach Golf Links to shoot 67. Taylor is 17-under par after three rounds, with a 198 total. This unique event on the PGA Tour is spread out over three golf courses and pairs one amateur with one pro for three days. Then there...

This week the U.S. Senate voted not to remove President Trump from office while Mitt Romney–a devout Mormon, former CEO of Staples, former governor of Masschusetts, who was the Republican nominee in the 2012 presidential election and is now a senator from Utah–was the sole Republican in the Republican-controlled Senate who voted to remove the president for abuse of power. Romney gave a speech on the Senate floor yesterday revealing why he so voted to remove Trump. He cited his... Read more
On Tuesday, the U.S. Senate acquitted President Trump of two House impeachment charges: abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The vote was completely along party lines except that one Republican senator voted not to acquit Trump–Utah’s Mitt Romney. He was the Republican nominee for president in the 2012 presidential election and thus the leader of the party at that time. Today, President Trump gave a long, rambling speech to Republican members of Congress gathered in the East Room of... Read more
Webb Simpson defeated Tony Finau on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff today to win the Waste Management Phoenix Open at the TPC Stadium Course in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was Simpson’s sixth win on the PGA Tour, and it left Finau–who has been knocking at the door so often of late–still searching for his second win. Simpson has won two big ones: the 2012 U.S. Open and the 2018 Players Championship. It was a thrilling finish once again, of... Read more
Use my map on the front cover of my book as a grid and fill in the blanks on the map just released yesterday which shows the Trump Mid-East peace plan. Read more
In my last blog post, which is about Trump’s Mid-East peace plan announced today, I did not see the proposed map that goes with this plan until minutes after I posted that. President Trump had claimed in his announcement, today, that his plan “doubles” the land for Palestinians for their future state he proposes compared to how much land they... Read more
Today, President Donald Trump announced his proposal for solving the Israeli-Palestinians conflict, calling the “deal of the century.” Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was at his side as both men gave prolonged speeches about it, with Trump’s reportedly being about 50 minutes. But Palestinians were glaringly absent. Their leaders had already denounced the plan without knowing for certain its details. Netanyahu couldn’t praise Trump enough for this plan. Both leaders credited Trump’s son-in-law and advisor, Jared Kushner, for putting together... Read more
I was watching some of the televised impeachment proceedings in the U.S. Senate today when attorney Kenneth Starr made his debut defense of President Donald Trump. I had already thought that when it was announced days ago that Starr was being added to Trump’s legal team to defend him in the Senate, that looked like hypocrisy on Starr’s part. Why? He was the main person who got President Bill Clinton impeached in the House, mostly for Clinton’s sexual mishap with... Read more
