Postcard:
Sand Trapping
"It
felt more like putting on a clay tennis court, after the abuse of a
singles tournament. The brown was made of sand mixed with oil, and steamrolled.
There was a broom at edge of the brown to sweep up your footprints after
you putted. Or perhaps we were supposed to use the Olympic curling technique
and sweep just in front of the rolling ball. "
--Doug Lansky, playing golf at the sand course at the Dubai Country
Clove in United Arab Emirates.

On The Bus With Maya Angelou
"And sometimes we stop the bus and get out and

It's very nice. I believe the bus has given me at least two more years
of life."
