Hooking Left:
Cuba Tees Up
Golf's Revival


I'm reminded of an irony. Sometime this past week, the NYTimes had a longish article on the decline of golf. Perhaps Cuba is getting in just as golf is going south. Ouch!! Sorry about that.

As for Clinton and Cuba, I gather, like much else, he counted votes, Florida in this case, and dropped his Cuba plans.

I always thought that we put Cuba in a cubicle because of the large Cuban vote in this country..

There was a program on while I was at the gym bringing up this topic which has always irritated me. We trade with China. We do business with Russia... and yet a small nonthreatening country to our South by 90 miles we want nothing to do with.

WHY..

It was mentioned all the advantages it would be both to ourselves and the Cubans to be back on trading, exchanging
a of course those Cuban beaches for tourists..

WHAT a shame we have such narrow minded leaders.
