Actually, I snag them from a Google alert I have set up. I paste some of the links from my Google alert here because this is where the disc golfers lurk. If the common crowd feels that I need to stop, I will. Are you filing an official complaint?

You are from Slinger, Wisconsin? That has to be a disc golf town!

No, they pulled the only course in town... but it does have the fastest quarter mile oval race track in the world... and a ski hill.

Butt hurt in Rhode Island puts disc golf course in danger. Self important people showing their ignorance:

"Councilor Mark Wildenhain, clearly one of several on the council who was doubtful of the popularity of disc golf locally, asked if the $20,000 would have to be spent on the disc golf course approved by resolution of the council last November"

If I lived in Rhode Island I would be contacting Mr. Wildenhain:
