Scripture

As you golf fans know the most recent Pro Golf Tournament was held at the Firestone Club in Akron, Ohio - the rubber capital of the world. That ubiquitous placard JOHN 3:16 reappeared in the gallery. At first I thought it was the yardage for a par three hole. The holder/holders used to show up at baseball games and always sought out the camera. In those days I used to think it was Tommy John's earned run average. As an aside to that tournament, the caddy recently fired by Tiger Woods was on the bag for the winner earning himself twice the purse that Woods went home with. There must be a moral here for all you unemployed caddies. During the heat of the summer many golf rounds are interrupted by thunder storms accompanied by lightning. Players are urged to leave the course and seek shelter. Lee Trevino, the Mexican-American golfer was once asked what was his routine when lightning appeared. He said, "I grab a "one" iron because not even God can hit a "one". FORE!
