‘Performance equals potential minus interference.’ Tim Gallwey ** Megam M. reported in drills on Friday that she played her best tennis when she had put a number of Christmas bells in her hair. She said the constant jingling eliminated the white noise, the over analyzing, and the critical monkey voice that had previously interfered with […]

A very young cowboy read a terrific book recently. An unlikely friendship develops when a young American girl writes a pen pal letter to a boy in Africa. Let’s just say it’s a bond that will undoubtedly last forever.

Well, things have certainly changed these past few days. After house hunting in Detroit for three days, we returned to Denver in a quandary. We found Detroit to be a real buyer’s market but the two of us could never be loyal Lions, Tigers, or Pistons fans. Our decision between the two cities was made […]

Many friends are unaware that a much younger cowboy finished second when auditioning years ago for the part of Jethro in the hit TV show The Beverly Hillbillies. When the casting director broke the news to me, she suggested that I hustle over to Lot 19 to see if they were still hiring for Gilligan’s […]

Doug and Arlene suggested we meet for dinner at Zane’s Italian Bistro. (8101 E. Belleview) What a great surprise! Our waiter (Roger) was Johnny on the spot and as personable as they come.

Thirty four years ago, a much younger cowboy planted twenty five tulips on the side of our house. The effort paled in comparison to the previous owners who devoted much of their free time to gardening.

A not so young anymore cowboy learned a new word this week. Sarcopenia is the degenerative loss of skeletal muscle mass (0.5–1% loss per year after the age of 50), quality, and strength associated with aging. Sarcopenia is a component of the frailty syndrome. It is often a component of cachexia. I highly recommend the […]

Well, it’s official and no need hiding the fact that, after 34 plus years in Denver, Sally and I are house hunting. It’s going to be difficult leaving Colorado…the place where Sally scored her first hole in one, and where cowboy roams the mountain streams stalking rainbows and brown trout. I have heard that the […]

Well…it’s Master’s week again at The Augusta National Golf Club. Tiger Woods is healthy again and Rory McIlroy is trying to win to become one of six players in history to win The Grand Slam. It’s serious stuff. Or is it just a game? At Wednesday’s annual par three contest, some competitors understand it really […]

It is rumored that Drew Goodman…the television voice of The Colorado Rockies baseball club will be leaving his position May 1st.. Those in the know say he’s accepted a job in southern Florida broadcasting senior lawn bowling competition. Who could blame him? At least he’ll witness some scoring and competitive games.
