Obama about GMO
Golf over a lifetime
Two guys grow up together. After college, one moves to Michigan, the other
to Florida. They agree to meet every ten years in Vero Beach and play
golf.
At age 30, they finish their round of golf and go to lunch.
“Where you wanna go?"
"Hooters.”
“Why?”
“Well, you know, they got the gals with the big racks, and the tight shorts,
and the legs …”
“OK.”
Ten years later at age 40 they play.
“Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.
“Why?”
“Well, you know, they got cold beer, and the big screen TVs, and everybody
has a little action on the games.”
“OK.”
Ten years later at age 50 they play.
“Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“The food is pretty good and there is plenty of parking.”
”OK.”
At age 60 they play.
“Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“Wings are half price.”
“OK”
At age 70 they play.
“Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“They have 6 handicapped spaces right by the door.”
“OK.”
At age 80 they play.
“Where you wanna go?”
“Hooters.”
“Why?”
“We’ve never been there before.”
