Ed,
I have not met Chuck in person, but I feel like we are friends. Or at least we used to be. Our whole relationship has now changed with the uncovering of this story.

Do you have a problem with a group of people knocking their balls around the grass with a wooden mallet?
Seems a bit judgemental to me...... ;-)

Steve,
Being a golfer, I need to plead the 5th on that one. No judgement here. B-)

Gee ... this 'thread' is getting a bit raunchy .... I like it! Keep it up ... I had no idea Hula Boy was so talented .... I wonder if he has been sniffing too much glue from his wife's upholstery shop?
PSS: David ... your radio spot was great ... good job!

Raunchy? Please get your mind out of the gutter!
Croquet is played on a grass field using wood mallets to knock a wood ball, about 4" in diameter, through a series of "wickets" which are bent wire in the cheap versions and wood arches in the better sets.
Golf is played on a grass field and uses a "bent" stick to hit a smaller ball towards a hole in the ground, ususally marked with a flag on a pole so you can see it from far away. Usually this "game" is described as a nice walk ruined by stressful activities......
What ever were you thinking? :S

The Queen of Hearts seemed to enjoy the game, of course it's always been unclear what they were drinking/smoking to enjoy the game....
There is a link at Chuck's Links page to the Croquet Club, it's not like he's "coming out of the closet" or anything.

Steve.... gee, whatever was I thinking about ... oh, I know ..its 20 degrees outside here right now and I was just jealous of thinking of Hula Boy, aka /Croquet Boy 'living it up with some kind of Hawaian (sp?) drink in one hand and his putter in the other (hand). Now, don't take that the wrong way.... :-) {grin}
Oh, did I mention the foot of snow on the ground around me here?

John,
I am sure one day it is a putter and the next day it is a mallet.

David,
In a previous life I was in fact an announcer on the radio. Both here and in the Seattle area.
You did a damn fine job on the read. Damn fine.

I think I typed in Chuck Burke, Maui and it came up with that on the first page. I didn't request a background check or credit history. That's next. (devil)
By the way, did you hear back from the MEO about the EPS?

Hmmm, I didn't even see that, you have naked pictures on the WWW?

Chuck,
That's a fair price. If they don't place the order, they obviously don't understand and/or appreciate the complexities of their one-of-a-kind order.
P.S. Sorry about the secret conversation between Chuck and I, we'll take it off-forum now. (How is that for a teaser?)
