All,

Sorry for the delayed response... but my e-mail was inoperable over the
weekend.  That turned out to be a blessing as I was able to focus on golf
fun... at Pebble Beach and some lovely nearby courses.  Check out
www.pasatiempo.com and www.halfmoonbaygolf.com if you want see what I was
doing when not on the hallowed grounds of the 100th US Open.

As much as we had a runaway winner at the Open... (I mean, really... what
else can you say.   Roll this one around for a while... low round 3 of 4
days, second low round the other), we also had one in the Pool.  The man who
normally has to be cajoled to join... the man whose team was backed by Gabes
and I on more than one occasion, whipped all of our asses as bad as Tiger
whipped on the field.

The numbers say it all....

THIRTY One strokes!!! An ASS whupping!  Look at the fights for place... 4
strokes separate 5 teams.  But Fox laps the field.... WITHOUT Tiger!

Sobo, here are the $$$ distributions out of a pool of $265.  Of course, all
contribute $25 into thye pool.

Ikey, you would have been a mortal lock for second if not for Franco's 82 on
the last day.  The worst score by SIX strokes, which also ruined anyone who
had cut golfers.

See you at the British Open.  Where Tiger will be a prohibitive favorite at
a course that is wonderfully suited to his game... of course, what course
isn't?
