Chelsea Clinton or Sam Woods? -- Tough loss for the SCOREGolf team at Q107's Office Wars last week. Kudos to those who made it out for us so early in the morning – me, I was busy having a staring competition with the back of my eyelids. Bites Why should I spend my Friday afternoon watching Samuel L. Jackson hit bunker shots? Better than spending my Friday night watching him in Snakes on a Plane, I guess -- I'm not keen on the whole celebrity golf thing, but George Lopez entertains the hell out of me -- Had the chance to play the South Course at Torrey Pines in November. The La Jolla muni hosts this week's Buick Invitational and the U.S. Open in June. It's a good course on a great piece of property, but it doesn't come anywhere close to the top 10 courses in this country. Too many mediocre holes and too few on the ocean -- The new PGA Tour cut rule is both difficult to understand and completely unfair, like a jigsaw puzzle without the corner pieces -- You've got the chance to rewrite one section in the Rules of Golf.
Tories set budget confidence vote for Feb. 28
Shawn, did they say they were going to vote it down or was that Dion that was going to vote it down and Iggy was going to vote for it while Rae got mad and decided to walk out on the vote. Or was it Iggy that was going to walk out on the vote and Rae vote it down. This is all so confusing. It is Dion lrading the liberals, isn't it ?

Australia welcomes fatter postal workers
Australia's postal service isn't changing the scales on its counters, but it has loosened its weight limits for motorcycle staff as it faces a shortage of slender recruits in an increasingly heavy population. Australia Post lifted the maximum weight for letter carriers who ride its 110 cc motorbikes from the previous 198 pounds to 231 pounds. Postal service spokesman Scott McIntyre said Tuesday the change was made solely because the motorbikes' manufacturer, Honda, advised that they could handle the extra weight without "any significant effects on the stability, handling or safety." McIntyre said the maximum amount of mail carried on the motorbikes would remain unchanged at 55 pounds. But a postal union representative, Michael Etue, said Australia Post had struggled to find recruits who weighed less than 198 pounds.
