So, neat stuff ---but all off topic

Check this out. I stopped by a place "they" told me would rip me off because they were from another country.

Yeah right I picked up a bottle of Pouilly....19 bucks. I don't notice at the time it's Pouilly FUME....not the stuff that costs more.

So I peel off a 20, the guy has the nerve to crumble it up and finds there are 2 twenties stuck together. Hands me a dollar change.

YOU KNOW, that guy gave me my 20 bucks on top back. Now immigrant or not the guy can starve, I won't be back.

More importantly. I know you wish to know this ....NEVER MAKE A GOLF BET ON A BOXER. The Real Deal is a nice guy but can't hit a ball further than I can putt. On the first tee some guy said "Willy Mays has that one!" (I whispered to my son that Yogi Berra woulda had it). The up and coming Heavyweight Mike Grant is a bit better.

These boxers hit the ball like their arms are a blur....unfortunately, the ball goes about 20 feet. 20 left or right, even.....never straight.

What a gas. Like my son says; The NFL, the NBA, the Boxing professionals try to play golf. You never see a PGA Pro try to play the other sport. Golf is much harder.
