   Can we eliminate a word before the end of the year? How about if the term hash tag is banned right now. I have gone my entire life without hearing that term and now I hear it constantly on the radio, on tv and in conversation. That one needs to go!

   How about Jesus or God.
   Oh wait...we got rid of those a long time ago.
   Then let's get rid of Marriage.
   We should all just have "Partnerships".

    I have banned the word "cheat" from our shop. As in when my mechanic says: "I had to cheat and cut the frame on the tractor. But don't worry, I welded it back real good."

    "This is a document which was created in order to shed more light on the
    implicit knowledge held within the team at (club X).
    It is generally speaking a fixed document during the golf season, but does
    have some organic qualities in the off season."

    The organic qualities qualify it for the compost heap.

    we have been told by those higher up the food chain that "micro climate" is not to be used ever again.
    I make sure that i use it whenever possible just to stir the pot.

    Keep committee! I don't need a bunch of GM's and Owner's who think they are Zig Zigler coming up with new motivating terms for the meetings. I can hear it now, "Golf Action Team meets a 6pm Tuesday!"
