We were playing golf one time and waiting for our time to tee up when the ambassador drove up in his cart to wait with us. He was remarking about a woman who had played golf on the course a few days prior and how she said she wasn't going to rake the traps or replace her divots, it was the ambassadors' job. I don't know where she came from, but nothing is so far from reality as her thinking on this. Pray you don't have to play behind her!
