law138 asked: ""Big Break # / Weekend Warriors"....... contestants would be true amatures (no tour experience of any kind / or teaching pros), with handicaps ranging form maybe 5 to 15 or 10 to 20. They would play for prizes like cash, equipment, golf vacations, etc., etc..... To keep with the Big Break concept....a grand prize could be a round of golf at Augusta with Tiger Woods or a spot playing in the Pro-Am at Pebble Beach.
I would watch it and play in it if I had the chance to. What do ya think? I already sent an e-mail to TGC about the idea."

Swingin' My Life Away! replied: "It sounds like a pretty good episode to watch. I'm not really into Big Break all that much, maybe just because of the last one with Trump. He is a douche bag. Anyways, I'd watch it. Hope it gets on TV. Good luck. Happy Holidays."

awommack replied: "park"
Madalywin replied: "well i'm asuming you have food, so have a picnic at a park!"
pugs5678 replied: "sometimes you guys need to use your own heads park walk backyard"
tookoolfool replied: "if you already have the food pack a picnic and go to a lake and swim or a pretty park and bring some games or a kite or what ever you got for the kid to play with. later on at night you can make a fort in the living room and watch movies together.
Or check you local paper and see if any thing free is going on in your community. honestly your kid is still young enough that if you guys wet some dirt in the back yard and made mud and played around in it he will be having the time of his life. especially if you both get muddy with him then you can make mud pies and have a mud fight...then hose each other off. make cookies together. or you can make a mix of dish soap and water and use string or bend hangers to make bubbles.you don't have to have money to have fun you just gotta use your imagination! Good luck!"
barryoffshore replied: "Camp in the living room - play at the park - go fly a kite - spending family time doesn't cost a thing..."
Tanja asked: "eat oatmeal with yogurt in the morning, drink water, bike 20 min to school bus,5 or 10 min break eat lunch or snack. 11:20 am break, run around field until 11 45 class starts again. eat snack again in another 5 min or 10 min break. after school, walk to school bus, bike 20 min home. eat dinner around 7, after an hr run. Thursday is a break. Weekend exercise 2 hrs. How intense should it be? I wonder if i will even have time to do that much exercise everyday but i want it done. If I made it really intense does that mean I could cut down on it? Usually when I work out, the next day its not even soar or anything, only when i weight train."

Judy B replied: "You didn't post what food you are eating for lunch, snack and dinner so can't comment on the diet. Sounds like exercise may be excessive -- over 2hrs per day?
Consider joining your local Y or community centre for balanced exercise classes and to learn about safe exercise."
Morris P replied: "Since I started to work out I was looking for a good weight loss product. I was on a diet but I felt that I needed a little "help" so I decided to try this great product and I had fantastic results. You can check their website at , they give you a free trial and you only pay 5.49$ shipping and handling."
This weekend former WWE champion (yes, professional wrestling) Brock Lesnar will take on one of the very best the UFC has to offer, former UFC heavyweight champion, Frank Mir. Plenty of skeptics have come out of the woodwork to suggest that all Lesnar is doing is trying to get some publicity for himself, or for wrestling...
