Polo is upper class. Golf is middle class. Bowling and darts are for the working class.


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

How do you reconcile a UAW golf league? Is the UAW middle class?

What about the rank and file?

Most union leadership would qualify as crooks.

I have never met a UAW member. My only experience with the organization was while I was still working. The staff at UAW's Canadian headquarters are members of my Union. So, every three years, I would have to meet with UAW (the Employer) to bargain a collective agreement for our members. They were tough bargainers, but fair.

They never invited me out for a round of golf.

Golfing and drinking beer go hand in hand. You'd love it, TT.

I don't play Polo. I don't golf. I don't bowl. I don't play darts.

My hand - eye coordination is lousy.

One skill I have mastered is tipping a beer bottle to my lips.

After watching the debate that was all you really needed.

I don't watch your Country's debates. They have no relevance to me.

I know, you don't watch TV.

Nothing wrong with that.

I don't watch TV, I don't smoke. I don't play cards. I don't dance. I don't gamble. I don't wear women's clothes. I don't play tennis I don't go to the movies and I don't have a cell phone. Otherwise I'm just like everyone else.

But you do LISTEN to the radio.
