#4  The way I play golf, I'd need to bring a couple of cases of beer.

#2  In addition to loading their golf carts with clubs, balls, and tees, they brought along 28 cans of beer, a bottle of tequila, and “some marijuana.” After nine holes, Mr. Hayter, bought more beer.

Indeed, a long course will do that.

#1  Canadian judges have a nutty streak. Of course they do wear powdered wigs just like the judges in Britian.

A couple of years back, a few copies of one of the Harry Potter books (#6) was released early, and when some Canadian judge found out, the judge issued a court order that it was illegal for the people who obtained the books, to read the book, or discuss what was read until the release date.

I could see it then. Some neighbor who had a grudge with some household, saw a kid reading the book through a window. Called the RCMP, and these guys in their spiffy uniform are seen entering a house and dragging some 10-year-old and his book to a squad car.

In the above case we don't know who might be hiding behind a tree at some golf course somewhere... Golfers beware... Adam Sandler shouldn't travel to Nova Scotia, because he might face arrest for inciting disobedience to a court order.
