"LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (AP) -- In the South, where some joke that the four basic food groups are barbecued, baked, broiled or fried, state fairs are filled with booths that sell everything from corn on a stick to club-like turkey legs. For dessert, an odd new treat has emerged: fried Twinkies. Phil Dickson of Hot Springs has sold about 1,000 of the batter-dipped, deep-fried goodies topped with powdered sugar since the Arkansas State Fair opened Friday.

Heres a good bar joke: Beer is good for you even better for you than red wine. After more than 20 years of research and scores of studies on the effects of moderate alcohol consumption on health, beer is slowly bubbling to the top as a beverage that not only lifts spirits but delivers protection against major ailments such as heart attacks, stroke, hypertension, diabetes and dementia. The data seem so compelling that the National Beer Wholesalers Association, an Alexandria, Va., trade group representing the nations beer distributors, recently put on an oxymoronic sounding health and beer seminar and put out a press release that declared: Eat right, exercise and drink a beer a day may be the way to keep the doctor away.
w1ld: Ill drink to that. :) Beer may be good for you |

For right-handed golfers, a slice occurs when the ball starts left and finishes to the right of the target. It is caused by the club taking a very out-to-in swing path. Slicing usually is the result of a weak grip. This is when both hands are positioned too far to the left on the handle of the club. Problem shots: Slicing |
