...thing that makes it worth talking about, a rewritable CD burner. (It doesn't have a tape player, which I suppose at this point is considered as archaic as records, but there is an auxiliary input if you have a tape player component lying around). You can do high-speed copying; not only straight CD-to-CD burns but also compilations of songs from three CDs. For example, you could take the three albums John Lennon made with Yoko Ono, program in just the songs you want, and voilà, you have a CD with nothing but Yoko...
Well, not exactly. In Arizona, crazies already love "wasteland golf"--played entirely in the desert. Another variation, speed golf, requires players to cover a standard course as quickly as possible, by running between shots. One-club golf--a favorite Tiger Woods practice routine--mandates the use of a single club from tee to cup. Frisbee golf claims more than 16,000 players worldwide...
...Haworth discovered a purpose. "It took me a while, but I finally found something that someone my size can be very good at," says Haworth.

That leaves John Kasich, the House budget guru and rock 'n' roller who has been written off as too young for a ticket short on presidential experience. But try this...
...that Georgia was also a state in the Union. But I was not in the mood. Plus, I wanted to see where this would go. "Yes," I said. "Where are you from?" "Azerbaijan," he said excitedly. Now we were mostly out of the traffic, and any pretensions of a speed limit had been exceeded. It would have been nice for him to keep an eye on the road, but his homeland was evidently more important. But it was getting late, and I once again expressed my concern...
