In Travelgolf.com’s ever whimsical way, they’ve “written” a blog post saying G4TG has embraced “corporationism,” whatever that means. Is that a word? Seriously. Apparently not, according to Websters…
I always feel it is odd that when I rattle the cages at Travelgolf.com, they always take it upon themselves to insult Canadians, which doesn’t really add to the debate. Of course, it is also odd seeing as a good part of its readership is likely Canadians looking for places to play in the winter when it is cold. Oh well. Just boycott Travelgolf.com. They are hacks. There’s plenty of other things worth reading — just check out my blogs in the sidebar.
Oh, and I didn’t see them hitting back at Geoff Shackelford’s remarks….

Hey Robert,
If your readers want to read about ‘travelling’ & ‘golf’, it shouldn’t be too hard for them to find a suitable blog on your blog roll.
One of the newer one’s near the bottom would be a good choice.

Do these guys at travelgolf ever write about travel, or golf? Just curious…
That’s a good question, Sodface. As I see it, there blog posts are more often about other bloggers and the whole deal appears so contrived. I didn’t read it for months until Geoff Shackelford pointed out this blog was central to one of their columns….
Yes, very good question sodface…
