On a golf tour in Ireland, Tiger Woods drives his BMW into a petrol station in a remote part of the Irish countryside. The pump attendant, obviously knows nothing about golf, greets him in a typical Irish manner completely unaware of who the golfing pro is. “Top of the mornin’ to yer, sir,” says the attendant. Tiger nods a quick “hello” and bends forward to pick up the nozzle. As he does so, two tees fall out of his shirt pocket onto the ground. “What are those?,” asks the attendant. “They’re called tees,” replies Tiger. “Well, what on the God’s earth are dey for?” inquires the Irishman. “They’re for resting my balls on when I’m driving,” says Tiger. “Fookin’ Jaysus,” says the Irishman, “BMW thinks of everything!”

JM and Dan are two lucky guys. They got Tickets to the 2006 US Masters. Luckily, for all us bloggers who can only follow from a distance, they share their experiences and insights on their “Live from Augusta” blog. They will be updating the daily blogs from Augusta beginning on Wednesday Night, April 5th. So stay tuned.

By the way, I’ll play my first tournament of the year April 9th. So after playing 18 holes I can kick back in the clubhouse and watch the tournament coverage. Let’s just hope they have Premiere there!
