Golf, anyone?

I've had several auditions where I had to play a golfer. Every time, they provided the clubs. Tomorrow, though, they want to see that we're "real" golfers -- real enough to own our own equipment and such.

It seems kinda silly. They should pretty much be able to tell from your swing whether you can actually golf or not. And I can't golf particularly well, but I do have a very credible swing. Maybe they just don't want to spring for equipment in the shoot.

Anyway, my first impulse was to go on Facebook and put out an alert to everyone I know. Then I thought, wait. How about instead e-mailing the handful of people you know who actually do golf AND who live nearby. Makes a lot more sense. But it's ridiculous the kind of random habit Facebook gets you into. Oversharing. Broadcasting. Talking instead of communicating. Facebook has become a very bad habit.
