The quick answer?  It doesn’t.  I just wanted to proclaim my disbelief!  It’s really going too far now.  First it was Pontiac, then Bear Stearns.  I could live with both of those, even though I’m a car guy and was liking the direction in which Pontiac was going.  But Hostess?  I can’t take it!  What’s next?  Levi’s? 

OK, I suppose I can live without the Twinkies.  But what I’m really gonna miss are the Cup Cakes.  Peeling off the top and saving it for last.  Oh, the memories.

I know this has nothing to do with golf and I really should try to tie something in so.., I guess with Hostess going out of business, there could be a slight burst in the golf economy.  Why?  Because 18,500 people spread throughout 23 states have suddenly found themselves with a bunch of extra time on their hands.  What are the odds that a percentage of them spend a little more time on the course?  Hey, when I lost my last job, I certainly found some more free time for golf.
