trump, the apprentice, and carolyn kepcher

So I must confess I haven't seen The Apprentice. Sorry, I barely have time to watch TV, and my only reality show is American Idol. But I've just discovered how much golf is a part of Trump's empire. He owns 2 exclusive golf clubs, for which you might be able to get on the waiting list if you have $300,000 to throw around. And on the finale of The Apprentice, I've heard that Bill, the winner, was offered 2 possible jobs: (1) managing one of Trump's golf courses or (2) managing a 90-story building project in Chicago. Bill chose (2) -- what an idiot... he should be fired for that!

BTW, Trump is reportedly a 5-handicap. And his fetching lieutenant Carolyn Kepcher is the chief operating officer of Trump National Golf Courses. For more on Trump's views of the importance of golf, visit here.
