GOLF CHUCKLE
Bad tempered golfer
Hear the one about the bad tempered golfer who bought a new
set of Great Big Bertha Woods.
After playing with them for a couple of rounds he returned
to his pro shop and told the pro that these were the best
clubs he had ever played with.
In fact "I can throw these clubs 40 yards further than my
old ones".

Turn Your Next Bath Into a Relaxing Massage
This extremely unique bar of soap can also be used as a
hand held massager to loosen up your aching body the next
time you take a bath or shower. Made with scented or
unscented soap, it comes with a built-in vibrating motor.
Just take it out of its soap dish and feel the vibrations
begin. When you're finished, simply put it back into its
dish and it will stop vibrating. And best of all - it is
100% safe for use in water. Now $19.99 or save when you
order two or more at $14.99 each by visiting:
