Posted August 18, 2007. My wife is telling me that I now occasionally yell in my sleep. Once I was yelling OW! repeatedly, and once she couldn't make out what I was saying. After waking up I do not remember any dreams that it could be related to.
Succinctly, a gimmie is a putt so short a golfer considers it unmissable, so just picks it up and counts it as holed. To be more precise: A gimmie putt is one that a player requests be conceded by another player, allowing the first player to pick up and move on as if the putt had been holed.
The classic American version of the Gimme a Break Kit Kat jingle (in use in the US since 1986) was written by Ken Shuldman and Michael Rogers (copy) and Michael A. Levine (music) for the DDB Advertising Agency.
