My favorite thing about golf is going to the driving ranges when their special is drink all the beer you want and hit all the balls you want for a set price.

Joe,You don't have to be a pro I think the golf thing was meant that if you enjoy what your doing you may live long.But if you feel better with frogs live long with them.   Last edited on Sun Aug 17th, 2008 01:40 am by harley88
