years ago?"

easy to switch between the two... because it carries BOTH

This alone is great, but you also get tweezers a mirror, plus
two bottles you can fill with cleaning and soaking solution.
Also ideal for carrying sunglasses. Perfect for traveling or
just to keep at home, this 2-in-1 case can be yours for only
$12.99 or Save $6.00 and get two for $19.98. It's a GREAT Gift

GOLF CHUCKLE
Worst golfer
One day, John Smith decided to go to a new golf course where
no one knew him, just to get away and see if he could do
better elsewhere.
He hired a caddy to guide him around the course. After
another day of slices, duff shots, misread putts and bad
temper, he was obviously upset. He turned to the caddy and
said, 'You know I must be the worst golfer in the world.'
The caddy replied, 'I think not sir, I have heard there is a
guy named John Smith from across town who is the worst player
ever!'
