STOPPING BY COURSE NO. 1 ON A SNOWY MORNING

Which green this is I think I know,
I’m not quite sure, with all this snow.
My partner’s ball is in the trees
In cold wet stuff up to his knees.

He sighs and moans to show his grief
And asks if he can take relief.
I nod OK, but how’d I know
He’d leave a patch of yellow snow?

Obama thought he was cute, calling the blizzard a 'Snowmageddon'.


A lot of folks think what Obama and the Democratic party really need to fear is:

Tiger Woods Won't Be Back

Tiger won't be coming back.

You can bet on it. Tiger Woods isn't coming back. He wouldn't be the first to withdraw completely from public view. Think of Howard Hughes or J.D. Salinger.

He has nothing to return to but humiliation and jeers. Certainly neither Tiger nor his bride have any interest in getting back together, so that's out. He doesn't need the money, and his career train is so completely derailed that his dream of breaking Jack Nicklaus' record in the majors hasn't got a chance of coming true.

Besides, he now has the one thing he has desired since his golf shoes first pranced on public stage: PRIVACY! He's now free to be himself -- whoever Tiger Woods really is -- and enjoy himself, and his girl friends or boy friends, whoever, outside of public view.

In all his life, with all his money, he's never had his freedom before.

Tiger won't be back.
