For the ultimate erudite discourse on Golf Course Architecture you'll probably hear this year, click this.

It is great, but beware that it is not safe for work (or anywhere else were people have sensitive ears.)

John,
Good Points, BUT...
What do you mean? Work?
Do people REALLY log on here whilst at their employers places of business and actually spend time NOT WORKING??? :o
I, for one, find that hard to believe. If this is the case, then I am truly shocked!

FBD.

I didn't click the link, but if this is the one where he says "we put the flag way down there at the end, just to give you f-----' hope" this is, as Martin said, "Piss your pants funny."

Cheers,

Martin,

Just little mini breaks when I'm spent too much time getting tournaments setup. :)  I guess you must work nights.  10:55 EST + 5 hours difference to the UK is still working hours for most. :o

Tony, yes that's the one.  It is from his HBO special last year.

I was fortunate that everyone else was out of the office when I clicked on the link so I could enjoy it.

It was my impression that it's from quite a few years ago -- even back as far as the '70s. I'm sure I heard it more than a year ago. Does anyone know?

Dan,

It ran on  HBO July 2002.  It came out on DVD in December 2002.   It may be an old routine though.

There has got to be a joke in that statement somewhere.  The event sounds like a... 'blast' ! ;D ;D :o

I've never been able to decide who's funnier--Robin Williams or Jim Carey. Carey is more physical than commentary and Williams is a little more commentary than physical but I think Williams goes slightly ahead with that video on golf!
