The weather lady predicted a bright and sunny weekend and for once it seemed that her prediction had been true. I met my friend early for a light breakfast and some coffee before going out on the golf course. We got our clubs and decided to walk instead of taking a cart, since it was such a lovely day.

As we got ready to tee off, my friend started talking about poverty, war and strife that has hit our little planet. It was the most random thing, but I had been contemplating the same and trying to think of ways and means to donate my time and effort to a cause that would really change the world. We took our shots and started walking down the course. We discussed the topic at length and decided there wasn’t much we could do, but we would do what little we could. The topic drifted into TV shows and video games. A few minutes later we were talking about saving the world again, only this time we came up with a fool-proof plan to end the strife, starvation and chaos. It went a little like this:

Jack Bauer, from the TV series 24, would be appointed Director of CIA or Secretary Of Defense. With his knowledge of terrorism and nuclear attacks coupled with his undying love for his nation, Bauer would be the ideal candidate in charge of all strategic planning and defense procedures. He’d also be able to advise President Ryan on how to eradicate terrorism off the face of the earth for good.

The presidential security detail would have to include Agent 47 from the video game Hitman, Domingo Chavez from the novels by Tom Clancy, Max Payne from the video game Max Payne and Curtis Manning from the TV series 24. Presidential advisors would have to include Tin Tin for his capabilities and amazing intellect, not to mention Captain Haddock who is witty and vastly experienced. Advisors would also include Brian the dog and Stewie the baby from the TV series Family Guy for their untainted knowledge of the world and its happenings. Jay Leno would also earn an honorary place in the White House for his knowledge of the world and the sensitive nose he possesses for digging up stuff that no one else could ever manage to dig up.

With the said administration in place America would be able to clean up house and then impart that knowledge to the rest of the world so that they may clean up their houses. Switzerland would be the chosen destination for all global conventions and discussions.

That is our plan for saving the world. It is true that the best plans are devised on the golf course.
