Golf Widows and Other News

__The place of the father in the modern suburban family is a very small one, particularly if he plays golf. Bertrand Russell.

Be forewarned, our friends at ABC's Good Morning America are looking for golf widows.

Does your husband play an exorbitant amount of golf? Ever feel like he chooses to hit the links instead of being with the family? We want to hear your story. Good Morning America is looking for "Golf Widows," please send us your tale and how to make contact with you.

"Good Morning America Weekend Edition" wants to hear your story. Fill out the form below and a producer may contact you.

I'm not sure all of us would agree on a definition of "exhorbitant," so it might be a good week to suggest your wife catch up on the Today Show.

Meanwhile, if you're looking for a chance to play more golf, here's an interesting promotion by Hilton Garden Inns as reported by the Dallas Morning News: Stay a night and get a free round of golf.

Sure beats frequent flyer miles.
