Is Obama Poised to Cede US Sovereignty?

I misspoke in Enviro/Gaia speak, I was supposed to say "Climate Change" since they have started to realize that people aren't buying the whole "Global Warming" thing. Rebranding is a good thing doncha know!

But now we have another environmental disaster looming:

That's right, GOLF BALLS are now an environmental threat, we will now have to send off .28 to Sri Lanka every time we hit a bucket of balls in "Dimple Offsets" :26::sifone:

Scientists scouring loch ness in submarines looking for Nessy discover golf balls.. Is that CNN or the National Enquirer?? my faith in the modern scientific world is waning..

I just spit my water out! Now that's hysterical!!!!!!

Now, I remember a while back when all the enviro. companies were showing up at the marina's, gas stations and mechanic shops to take soil samples.... Are they going to show up at the golf course and have to scour all the water hazzards?? I wonder if they will set up some kind of PPM (parts per million) allowance for the amount of golf balls in the pond vs. how much water it holds... :rofl:

 

[Ted]

Maybe the golf balls are actually Nessie eggs and we are set for a new flock of dinosaurs ruling the earth, that'll show 'em. :ack2::willy_nilly::rofl:

we just need to genetically engineer a golfball eating fish......

Not a long term problem. It'll only be a matter of time before something bites their hand off.

i'll take a very experience, hot little slut-bag any day.

Can I get an AHMEN for the brother please

Why not fix multiple issues all at once? For a small one time investment, buy all the illegal mexicans a mask, snorkel, flippers and a net. Pay them by the ball and tax them on their earnings.
Then, pay all the illegal Haitians and Cubans to clean and repackage the balls and sell them to the Arabs to use on their new golf courses in Bahrain and Dubai.

 

[Ted]

Genius!!

 

[Geronimo36]

Ya know what's funny about this golfball stuff... Don't the golf courses already have special rakes to recover the missing balls and recycle them?

An illegal isn't worth squat if he cant hold his breath long enough to grab a golf ball off the bottom of a 6' deep waterhazzard.. but now you have created a hygiene/water pollution toxic sludge problem......

thats why we need pearl divers!

Before the beginning of the 20th century, the only means of obtaining pearls was by manually gathering very large numbers of pearl oysters (or pearl mussels) from the ocean floor (or lake or river bottoms). The bivalves were then brought to the surface, opened, and the tissues searched.
In order to find enough pearl oysters, free-divers were often forced to descend to depths of over 100 feet on a single breath, exposing them to the dangers of hostile creatures, waves, and drowning, often as a result of deep water blackout on resurfacing.[1]. Because of the difficulty of diving and the unpredictable nature of natural pearl growth in pearl oysters, pearls of the time were extremely rare and of varying quality.
In Asia some pearl oysters could be found on shoals at a depth of 5-7 feet (1.5-2 meters) from the surface, but more often than not divers had to go 40 feet (12 meters) or even up to 125 feet (40 meters) deep to find enough pearl oysters, and these deep dives were extremely hazardous to the divers. In the 19th century, divers in Asia had only very basic forms of technology to aid their survival at such depths. For example, in some areas, they greased their bodies to conserve heat, put greased cotton in their ears, wore a tortoise-shell clip to close their nostrils, gripped a large object like a rock to descend without the wasteful effort of swimming down and had a wide mouthed basket or net to hold the oysters.[1][2]

I had a buddy of mine drown in FL back in the late 80's. Was hired by a golf course to get golf balls out of the bottom of the lake for them to resell. They think he was spooked by a gator and drown. I say he screwed his bookie, ran to Florida and time ran out.

Surely you are talking about the "Climate Changelings" right??

Yes.

My cousin owns a used golfball business. Has divers that scoop them out on a regular basis. Sells them- either back to the course for their driving range or to others. Nice little biz.

It's probably the cruise industry, hitting balls into the ocean. I hear a special cruise tax coming.

Wont work. the Haitans & Cubans will just float on rafts.

Wait, how did we go from ceding sovereignty to dimpled chad balls?

I want to know why your talking about my balls, and I don't have dimples on them!:26:

No, but I read at a truck stop that they're pretty hairy.
