But this is your painting, so you choose!&nbsp; Or, for fun why not design a new hole that\u2019s perfect for us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s start by putting an elevated green over here on the far right side of the canvas. No big trees over here, I want a clear line of sight when I approach the green.&nbsp; On the far left let\u2019s put in some thick waist high rough.&nbsp; There, that looks good.&nbsp; Oh, and surprise!&nbsp; There is poor Nancy Pelosi in the weeds!&nbsp; It will take her two weeks to get out of there!&nbsp; Hah, hah, hah!&nbsp; You know how you can tell it\u2019s Nancy?&nbsp; Because she is wearing horrible looking clothes!&nbsp; A disgrace!&nbsp; Typical!&nbsp; But look, she\u2019s not alone!&nbsp; There is a 20 foot python that hasn\u2019t eaten in six months that is approaching her!&nbsp; Won\u2019t she be surprised!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can tell this is already well on the way to being a spectacular painting.&nbsp; Really.&nbsp; Let\u2019s put my ball 10 feet from the cup.&nbsp; Probably a \u201cgimme\u201d.&nbsp; Over here on the fringe, on the lower level of the green, 75 feet from the pin, let\u2019s put Lindsay Graham\u2019s ball. Oooops!&nbsp; I just accidently kicked it into the sand trap!&nbsp; Too bad\u2026 his ball is half buried in an infestation of sand fleas.&nbsp; Very sad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s such a gorgeous day, don\u2019t you agree.&nbsp; I love being outdoors and playing golf.&nbsp; All this exercise can work up an appetite!&nbsp; I think it\u2019s time for a snack, don\u2019t you?&nbsp; Before I tap in my putt for an eagle, let\u2019s put down our brushes and take a break!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ahhhhh!&nbsp; My favorite light snack.&nbsp; Two delicious Big Mac\u2019s, a McChicken and a cold Diet Coke! Real American food! Perfect!&nbsp; Did you know when Premier Putin comes for a visit I always order-in McDonald\u2019s for him.&nbsp; It\u2019s his favorite, too. He loves the vanilla shake the best!&nbsp; He puts some Stoli in it (which I don\u2019t approve of).&nbsp; But he is our guest!&nbsp; He says that it makes the shake a \u201cWhite Russian.\u201d&nbsp; He always laughs at that!&nbsp; He has such a great sense of humor.&nbsp; Very funny guy.&nbsp; He told me that Lenin hates the White Russians!&nbsp; And then he laughs hysterically!&nbsp; Whatta guy! But I had to remind him that John Lennon is dead! Do you know how I know?&nbsp; Because I got an \u201cA\u201d in American History in the Third Grade.&nbsp; And Betsy DeVos told me that it was an Advanced Placement Course and I was the only one in the class to get an \u201cA\u201d.&nbsp; You can ask her\u2026 she has all the transcripts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OK, let\u2019s put the finishing touches on this beautiful painting.&nbsp; We have to put the Club House over here.&nbsp; And Barack Hussein Obama and his type aren\u2019t permitted!&nbsp; Neither is Chuck Shumer and his people!&nbsp; Sorry!&nbsp; This is a Club for real Americans!&nbsp; We\u2019ll let Mitch McConnell and Mike Pence in as locker room attendants! Hah, hah, hah!&nbsp; And over here let\u2019s put up some signs \u201cPrestigious Lots for Sale\u201d.You know what\u2019s missing in our painting?&nbsp; Puffy white clouds!&nbsp; Let\u2019s put a few over here.&nbsp; You can put your clouds whereever you want.&nbsp; Remember, this is your painting!&nbsp; I\u2019m going to put a small black dot over by this cloud.&nbsp; Do you know what it is?&nbsp; It\u2019s a Lockheed Martin F-16&nbsp;Fighting Falcon armed with Sidewinder Missiles that are trained on the sand trap! It\u2019s gonna be a bad day for Lindsay!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There!\u00a0 A sensational painting! Don\u2019t you agree?\u00a0 But where are you?\u00a0 I can fix that!\u00a0 Send me a donation of $10,000 and you can put your ball 11 feet from the cup, and for an extra two grand I can get Rudy Giuliani to carry your bag! (But don\u2019t tip him heavy!\u00a0 I don\u2019t want him to get a swelled head!)  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, there it is! I hope that this was as much fun for you as it was for me! Remember&#8230; your painting is not as good as mine.  And thank you for your wonderful support and for joining me on such a magnificent day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello my beautiful friends!&nbsp; It\u2019s such a beautiful day today that I thought it would be very nice to paint a terrific golf scene!&nbsp; I love playing golf!&nbsp; Why don\u2019t you join me today?&nbsp; We can choose to go to &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/?p=110386\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-110386","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ministry-of-jokes"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110386","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=110386"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110386\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":110393,"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110386\/revisions\/110393"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=110386"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=110386"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/summerofjim.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=110386"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
