- Good morning golf aficionados! My name is Rick Fields, and you guessed it, I am here with my main man, Bob Copeland.
- Thank you, Rick! As you can see, ladies and gentleman, we are here in beautiful Pebble Beach where the top golfers in the world are trying to win the grand prize of one million dollars!
- Whoa, that ' s a lot of cash! Let ' s go to the course and see how Tiger Woods is doing.
- All right, we are here at the eighth hole. It ' s a par four, and has some very difficult hazards which many golfers find difficult to avoid. Although, I did see Jack Nicklaus hit a hole in one on this very same hole!
- Tiger Woods is about to tee off, and let ' s see if he has the same luck as Jack. Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and, he seems to be very nervous.
- Oh no! Not a good swing at all! It ' s definitely not his day today. On the seventh hole he got a bogey and before that he barely made par. He will definitely not get a birdie on this shot.
- It seems that his ball has flown somewhere deep in the trees. He is having a hard time finding it and even his caddie has climbed a tree to try and spot it.
- Oh no! A bear! Run, Tiger, run! Somebody call animal control!

- So who does he think he is, anyway, I can't believe the way that my boss has been ordering everyone around lately, I mean, it's now like he is the CEO, or anything.
- Um ... Actually I am guessing you didn't get the MEMO. Your boss was selected to fill the vacancy in the CEO slot. He actually is the CEO now, or will be, as soon as the official press releases and hoopla is done with.
- Yikes! you are joking, right? I can't believe it. No wonder he is so stressed and bossy lately. I thought he was just being ostentatious by giving orders to people and all the different departments. What big shoes to fill!
- No kidding! When the last CEO left, we were worried about the future of the company.
- What does a CEO do anyway? I know the CEO makes the most money in the company, but what does he actually do?
- He is responsible to the board of directors for everything that happens in the company. He or she must give leadership to all company officers, as CEO is also responsible for providing the guidance of philosophy of the company, and acting as official representative, or face of the company.
- Must be one smart guy.

Jan called Aubrey's girlfriend to check up on how Aubrey was doing after the car accident.
- (Jan) I can't believe Aubrey had that car accident, I couldn't even get through to her.
- Oh my god, did you manage to speak to a relative?
- I only spoke to her girlfriend, she says she's fine but needs time to recover.
- How long before she's out of hospital then?
- Should be at least a month.
- Let me know once she's feeling better.
