  Edit:  While I know my putt was probably the most spectacular putt you've ever seen, I'm making myself exempt from the prize!

  I was actually thinking of "the Moose" when I posted that putt ... just wanted him to know he wasn't the only one with a 2" affliction!

  Lee...Your wgt avatar age. When did you start playing here? Replay ? I am going to ask andyson if he would be kind enough ( he is, after all, super kind) to list a "how to post a replay" for the lame and stupid... like me. A simple to follow guide that anyone could follow.

  April 28

  1442 - Edward IV ~ King of England

  1592 - George Villiers ~ 1st Duke of Buckingham

  1758 - James Monroe ~ 5th President of the United States. Responsible for the "Monroe Doctrine" which, in effect, expanded America from coast to coast.

  1876 - Frank Cavanaugh ~ One of Footballs coaching greats

  1878 - Lionel Barrymore ~ A better, finer Actor would be hard to name

  1908 - Oskar Schindler

  ~ lest we forget -

  that in 1789, there was a mutiny on the HMS Bounty as rebelling crew members of the British ship led by Fletcher Christian set the captain, William Bligh, and 18 sailors adrift in a launch in the South Pacific. They were adrift 47 days before hitting land.              Question: Of two Bounty movies, Who (in your never humble opinion) was the better Bligh? Charles Laughten or Anthony Hopkins? The better Christian? Clark Gable or Mel Gibson? The better Movie?  ... and the answer is..............

  Better movie ... the newer version.  Better Captain Bligh .... Anthony Hopkins.  Better Christian ... no doubt about it ... Clark Gable (and more ruggedly handsome too!)
