Forty or fifty years ago my mother , may she Rest In Peace, played golf. My father, also now deceased, built golf courses. There was a practice back in those days, to which one could nonchalantly demonstrate their familiarity with the game, to now and then just pop the ball in their mouth, get it wet and then wipe it clean with their fashionable golf towel, hanging on their club bag.
I recall back as a young boy, my father discovering that my mother participated in this practice. He explained to her that she might want to consider that most golf courses at the time were fertilized with a granular fertilizer called Mil….nite which was made from processed human fecal sludge collected from the sewage treatment plant in some rust belt city.
It was true. Might still be. If you golf, do like my mother did from that day on. Use the ball washer next to each tee.
Again, Mr. Keillor, you are so totally crazy. "Keep on keeping on", that an old Motown saying from an old Motowner.
Hahaha!!! Totally awesome dude!
You are a national treasure and that's awesome!
