The Home of Golf
Most people know that the game of golf was invented in Scotland when a few lads went out with sticks and struck a small white thing thru the links as their courses are called - and then struck it again and again. Last week Tiger Woods took home a million dollars for four days work doing the same thing. Now comes Donald Trump who has built a golf course near Aberdeen in Northern Scotland only to find that the government there has erected a wind farm offshore with eleven HUGE windmills
that are spoiling the esthetic view from his course. His protests have been in vain. He also has plans for a hotel in the area. When I think of The Donald's current predicament, it reminds me of that Irish song -"Me Father he was ORANGE and me mother she was GREEN."
