So on the advice of my brother, I decided to give the blog, a "handle". Upon waking at 1am and unable to return to slumber, I began thinking of catchy names for my new little "pet".
If you already know who Al Cervic is - congratulations! If not, do me a favor and go rent Caddyshack and you will soon be enlightened - as I have been -
Now I am a big believer of What Would Jesus Do.....but I think even Jesus would be rolling His eyes at how overused and trite WWJD has become. I try to live every day the WWJD way - and always fall short - I decided to have a little fun - and since Al Cervic pretty much is the embodiment of fun - a title was born.
Now I could have gone with Bea Arthur, the Fonz or even other people from the movie, such as Danny Noonan or Ty Webb.....but they all lacked the panache of AC.
Al Cervic knows how to have fun - and he does not care what kind of impression he makes on the so-called hierarchy at Bushwood. Like Al - I strive to have a good time and not worry so much about what people will think of me. Remember after all, at the end of the movie - Al stayed relaxed, and collected and ended up winning the tournamet. Al Cervic had inner peace and people wanted to be around him for that reason - the anthesis of Judge Smails - who despite the proclomation "Spalding and I are Old Pals" - not even his grandson wanted to hang out with him. Even Noonan got the message in the end and sacrificed his scholarship - to hang out with a guy who was fun, put on no airs and was happy with who he was.
I hope you like the new title....
