| Golf Course Crew Finds Skull in Fairway |
| 2007-03-24 |
| Mundelein, Ill. (AP) -- Golf course workers uncovering the tees for the season discovered a human skull at a suburban Chicago club and found bones nearby in the fairway, authorities said. The skull was spotted Monday near the 14th tee of the Prairie Course, one of two 18-hole courses at the Countryside Golf Club in Mundelein, according to Lake County Forest Preserve Police Chief John Galford. "It was laying there, right in the middle of the fairway," Galford said. Is that considered a Fairway Hazzard? He said the identity and gender of the person had not been determined, but the skull had some distinguishing marks: a partial set of dentures, two of the teeth are gold, some of the teeth have a star pattern on them, and one of the front teeth has a golden "R" on it. A forensic dentist planned to examine the skull and bones Tuesday, said Lake County Coroner Richard Keller. He said investigators would go through police records and missing-persons reports. Probably waiting for his partner to put out. |

| #7 Karolina took a pretty good beating, but still got up to give him more shit. None of the typical "I am a victim and someone deserves to pay" BS. When asked about how she took such pummeling, I keep hoping she will say "...my little sister punches harder than that." |

| #6 One can only hope this is the skull of Chicago Police Officer Anthony Abbate and if they look into brain pan they will find it devoid of any brain matter. |

| #5 I'm reminded of some stories about the Marine Park public golf course in Brooklyn, NY on Flatbush Avenue near the Belt Parkway. You got free drops if a dumped stolen car interfered with your shot. |

| #4 This is a local story for me... FYI, they think coyotes, the 4 legged kind, might have ordered some "takeout" from where Golden R's carcus was deposited. |
