The strategy and tactics of guerrilla warfare tend to focus around the use of a small, mobile force competing against a large, unwieldy one. The guerrilla focuses on organizing in small units, dependent on the support of the local population. Tactically, the guerrilla army attacks its enemy in small, repetitive attacks from the opponents center of gravity with a view to reducing casualties and becoming an intensive, repetitive strain on the enemies resources, forcing an over-eager response which will both anger their own supporters and increase support for the guerrilla, thus forcing the enemy to withdraw.

“Well the world turns
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose
plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto” – Elvis Presley
I recently played a game on the city’s main municipal course, and let me tell you, it’s a ghetto course. When I use the term “ghetto” I mean ghetto. Typical of something run by government. When you drive pass the projects in your own city, you usually notice how shitty the dwellings look. Usually boxy looking brown brick houses with one small window and the front door always has battering ram marks because of the occupants choice of employment.
Well this golf course was just like that. The shell craters bunkers are half filled with sand, half filled with gravel. Nothing better than chipping a few rocks along with your ball. The best part is, no one removes these rocks off the greens. The ghetto breeds complacency. The grass around the cup is always half an inch longer than the rest of the green, making it look like Agent Orange is the preferred method of grass maintenance.
Crack rock on the course...
Ghetto courses always attract the slow and course marshals are too drunk to notice the 5′somes of old ladies taking their sweet time. The backup at the tee boxes creates small pockets of angry shitty golfers who proceed to play holes where ever they want. This can make the game a little confusing because there’s always someone different in front of you and in back of you.
Another gift that comes with playing ghetto courses is the masses of well dressed, well equipped hackers. Those who pose. It’s amazing how much people spend on their equipment and clothes to create the illusion of professionalism. These fucks hacks always wait for the people to clear the green on a par 4 before teeing off. They then proceed to hit it 70 yards, 6 times before getting on the green. Fuck you look good hitting the ball 126 times. These hacks are usually the guys who tell everyone they hit in the 90′s. These are the guys the golf industry make their millions on. Ghetto rich. Drive a Porsche, but live at home.
Example: At the 13 hole a group of these guys decided to sneak up to the hole in front of us. We hadn’t seen them the whole round so I asked them “Where the fuck did you guys come from”? since I don’t take it very lightly when someone slows up my game. They responded with “I was going to ask you the same question”. The Jedi mind trick worked and I got confused for a second. Then I realized they weren’t smart enough to snake us and they were just playing the wrong hole. Dude… that’s why they number the holes. And of course both dudes power drove their balls (hack posers always use the biggest, baddest drivers like it’s an extension of their dicks) into the woods. We allowed them to proceed and followed them for two more holes. At the 16th hole they teed up and once again power drove onto the other fairway. Best part about it, they tee’d off the wrong way. How embarrassing. You have a set of Cobra’s, Nike everything, visor and GPS range finding system and you still can’t figure out which direction to hit the ball. Get the fuck off the course and stick to your driving ranges where I know you practice and practice your long fuckin’ drives so you can boast about your long fuckin’ drives.

With spurs, sword and swirls of white and crimson, the Knights Templar began a new priory in Ottawa this weekend. The Priory of Simon Peter is the third such group in Canada, and one of several hundred worldwide dedicated to upholding the chivalry of the centuries-old order.
The sunny May afternoon, the tuxedos and formal wear, even the bagpipe escort, gave the ceremony at the Canadian Forces Uplands chapel the air of a wedding rather than an ancient rite. The six men and four women joining the Sovereign Military Order of the Temple of Jerusalem took oaths to “fight from this day forward to be a defender of the kingdom of Christ.” Each came forward, knelt, and bowed slightly as a metre-long replica of a Templar sword alighted on the shoulders and head. “Arise, sir knight” said officiant Ronald Matthewman, Grand Prior of Canada.
A traditional red cross on a crimson ribbon was placed around each postulant’s neck, then a white, floor-length cape was draped across their shoulders. Another officiant held aloft a pair of silver spurs, tapped them twice, then bent down to place them (momentarily) on each postulant’s heels. The dames and knights all touched the hilt of the sword with the three central fingers of their right hand “as a sign of fidelity to the order.”
Edmund Griffiths, a decorated Second World War veteran, was elevated to lead the new group of about 30. The Priory of the Ascension of Our Lord in Windsor has 80 knights and dames, and Toronto’s Priory of St. James has about 50.
These modern-day Templars emphasize they are not Freemasons, nor are they a secret society, although candidates, usually highly educated community leaders, must be invited to join. The modern Templars were revived in the 19th century in France; this organization was founded in the United States in the 1960s where the headquarters remain today. It makes no claims about descending from the original medieval knights. However, they do see themselves as upholders of the Templars’ medieval code of honour. Its website says:
“The Order, in an age of democratic materialism and secular humanism, … (believes it has) an obligation to participate in the coalescing and preservation of a constructive force similar to that which created knighthood and chivalry during the Middle Ages.”
The Knights Templar began in the 11th century as a unique order of high-born military monks commissioned to fight Holy Wars against the Muslims and protect pilgrims on their way to the Holy Land. But by the 14th century, people became disenchanted with the order and accused them of corruption and growing soft. The Pope disbanded the order and several of the leaders were burned at the stake for heresy.

“Due to the nature of our armament, and the tactics in which we shall perfect ourselves, we shall be called upon to carry out operations of far-reaching military importance and we shall habitually go into action when the need is immediate and extreme. Let me call your attention to the fact that our badge is the great American eagle. This is a fitting emblem for a division that will crush its enemies by falling upon them like a thunderbolt from the skies.” – General Order Number Five
