Nah. I agree that golfers are people. Same with the bocci ballers,
croquet ball whackers and squash players. Tell the truth, I don't
know much about those "sports."
I think squash is the most physically demanding, but really don't
know.
Considering all the golf courses that have been built in the last 20
years, that game needs you, John.
After all, somebody has to do it.

Lots of golf courses are in a big hurt. In Myrtle Beach, many are being
sold to developers for home and condo sites.

It is nice being able to go to North Carolina, Greensboro area, and play a
round for less than $20, including the cart, on great golf courses. I
didn't start until I retired, and I seldom play on a weekend - too damn
expensive.

Which is a better investment, guns or gold? Now, you can buy a 1/10
ounce Buffalo gold piece for roughly $100 and it is probably easily
convertible into cash. Guns, I dunno, dont know much about em. If
Obama becomes Pres will they be illegal to sell? Maybe gold will be
too.

You have too much stuff on your plate that you worry about.

Except for some share I have held onto for sentimental reasons, I got
out of the market a long time ago, when I finally realized it was a
fraud, along with the accounting practices of large, publicly held
corporations.

Yeah, right!
