The room was full of pregnant women and their partners, and the Lamaze class was in full swing. The instructor was teaching the women how to breathe properly, along with informing the men how to give the necessary assurances at this stage of the plan. The teacher then announced, "Ladies, exercise is good for you. Walking is especially beneficial. And, gentlemen, it wouldn`t hurt you to take the time to go walking with your partner!" The room got quiet. Finally, our Banta raised his hand. "Yes?" replied the teacher. "Is it alright if she carries a golf bag while we walk?"
