Weekend Fun: Easter travel, a tradition unlike any other

April 6th, 2007 | Posted by PostmanE

This is a rather late Weekend Fun, thanks to the fact that I’ve been blazing my way across the Midwest all day in a Mazda Tribute. Trust me: the middle of Illinois is even flatter than you would imagine. Seriously. It’s like this, but the exact opposite.

Not only that, but I’m currently overcoming the slowest computer I’ve ever worked on in my entire life. I don’t know what my Mom did to this thing - maybe she downloaded a lot of porn or something - but it is literally crawling. Ugh.

Anyway, enough about my problems. Let’s talk about Tiger Woods’, who is somehow only five back at the end of Friday’s play. It’s been an ugly tournament for the entire field so far, but an uncharacteristically mediocre performance from Tiger. Having said that, five back is really nothing, considering the leaders are at two under and no one can seem to figure out Augusta.

By the way: what happened there? Didn’t Tiger win at -17 a few years back? Is it really that much tougher now? Anyone with information about what, exactly, was done to Augusta to make it the new Bethpage, holla at us.

With that, we’ll be tuning in all day tomorrow - with a special eye on the Cubs game; we’re back in the market area! - and I’ll be back with a post or two before the weekend is done, hopefully. If not, see you Monday, you rapscallions.
