Give me a few hundered free tee shots and I can neutralize the OB landmines........

[advertising guy]

reminds me of a favorite book....I’ll Jump Over The Cliff by Hugo Phirst

[Clint N. Suhks]

I don’t really play, just watch.

Be fun to watch ya’ll play:-O

[Springman]

I don’t either, but we’ll watch AG hook a few into NK or set off some land mines.

Sounds like a Tiger Woods course....even though it was OB he still liked to *hit it*

Smack in the middle of Waikoloa Golf Course on Hawaii is a petroglyph field called ‘King’s Walk” It is a fascinating place to study ancient rock carvings...but watch out for flying golf balls! :-)

Not nearly as exciting as the DMZ golf course, i must admit...although the locals say that there are “Warrior Ghosts” there at night.

Has any body been killer there while golfing on this coarse?

Camp Bonifas was renamed in 1986 to honor Captain Arthur G. Bonifas, who had been axe murdered in 1976 during a conflict with North Korea soldiers over pruning a poplar tree.

Ya know that is a new way to go.

Most people exit this mortal coil in the usual ways, heart attacks, sweetart overdose, traffic accidents, walnuts thrown by squirrels, an accidental mixing of Zotz and Pepsi or bludgeoned by exasperated spouses but I dare say he is the only American in history who died in that fashion.

I raise a glass to your memory sir! And if I should ever find my self back in the DMZ I will ask to play a round and stand a round in your honor.

Ping to the memory of Art Bonifas.

The bull sharks would not bother me. It would be the salt crocs that would scare me!
The last time I went fishing a bull shark almost as large as the the two-person row boat decided to investigate. We cut the lines and prayed. The next hour as we carefully made our way back to shore was the longest in my life.

Very cool. I’ve been there too.

Recall McArthur’s “Duty, Honor, Country” speech?

“As I was leaving the hotel this morning, a doorman asked me, “Where are you bound for, General?” And when I replied, “West Point”, he remarked, “Beautiful place. Have you ever been there before?”
