this is actually a ploy to give everyone the exact same footprint so investigators can't pinpoint whose tracks are in the mud in the hidden corners of the golf course...

can we just skip the charade where we enter a user name and password and then click "login"... Just give me one button that says "send me a verification code" and save me the next click.

Days

By Philip Larkin
What are days for?
Days are where we live.   
They come, they wake us   
Time and time over.
They are to be happy in:   
Where can we live but days?

Ah, solving that question
Brings the priest and the doctor   
In their long coats
Running over the fields.

The covers of three books. Left to right: Gandolfini: Jim, Tony, and the life of a legend, about the late Sopranos actor. The cover shows Gandolfini looking shy, peering offscreen with one unobstructed eye and another that peeks out between the fingers of his right hand.
