billr sends this in: “I don’t play golf. Is this supposed to be a pun on “fore”?”
Your editor isn’t a golfer either. How often do players actually yell “Fore”?

Yes, it’s supposed to be pun on “Fore” – how the tradition began. Of course, the point of yelling Fore is supposed to be to warn someone there’s a golf ball heading their direction, which doesn’t enter in here. I don’t know how often it actually gets used (don’t play golf either).

I am a novice golfer and I can tell you, on 9 holes this past week, I yelled it twice.

It has to be better than yelling, “Excuse me, folks, but my golf ball is headed right for your head, so you might want to duck.”
