[Leica] PESO: Gaining

LOL!
Jim's picture is great; and I have similar thoughts about golf carts like 
Dilbert's gilfriend and Nathan. I always smile when my parents in law talk 
about how much sport they did today ("18 holes!")... I consider the athletic 
value of golf playing as a longer walk combined with (18) arm swings (but 
for walkers, only, not cart drivers). Rather unimpressing for one who is 
used to ride a street or mountainbike with 170 heartbeats per minute 
(average) for several hours (no doping I swear)...
