WITandWISDOM(tm) - September 27, 1999 ~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS: Give up any hope of a better past, and move on. - Barbara Coloroso (E-zine: MOTIVATIONAL MAILER Mailto:overcomeunlimited- subscribe@listbot.com) ~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS: "With God, even when nothing is happening - something is happening." - Rev. Reubin Welch, "In the Arms of God" by Dr. James Dobson ~~~~~~~ THIS & THAT: THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH ABOUT GOLF . . . In primitive society, when native tribes beat the ground with clubs and yelled, it was called hocus- pocus; today in civilized society, it is called golf. The man who takes up golf to get his mind off his work soon takes up work to get his mind off golf. Golf was once a rich man's sport, but now it has millions of poor players. Golf is an expensive way of playing marbles. The secret of good golf is to hit the ball hard, straight and not too often. There are three ways to improve your golf game: take lessons, practice constantly - [or start cheating] (not recommended). An amateur golfer is one who addresses the ball twice - once before swinging, and once again, after swinging. Many a golfer prefers a golf cart to a caddy because it cannot count, criticize or laugh. Golf is a game in which the slowest people in are those in front of you, and the fastest are those behind. Golf: A five mile walk punctuated with disappointments.

Under his name on the badge they printed "Hog Caller" as his occupation. Everyone made a big fanfare as the badge was presented. The pastor responded by saying: "Well, I'm usually called the Shepherd of the Sheep' . . . but you know your people better than I do."

New Zealand was the first country to give woman the vote, in 1890. In Michigan, USA, a man legally owns his wife's hair. (E-zine: TODAY'S USELESS FACTS Mailto:Useless_Facts- subscribe@listbot.com) |
