This last ice storm finally did what President Eisenhower couldn't.

Clearly Eisenhower is not happy with the gays getting married.

They have a replacement though, right? Augusta has a whole nursery of replacement trees, including that one in particular, and shrubberies and whatnot, don't they?

I have no doubt that there will be a replacement tree there this year. I wonder if they'll name it.

The name will need to be organic. Like if someone makes a miraculous recovery from under/around it.

My guess is that they will import a very large replacement. They've done it before. There was talk one year of a few trees having had to be removed, but when the players showed up the trees put in place were every bit as foreboding as the ones that had been taken out. They will definitely not put a sapling in there.

I may be misremembering this but I'd swear I saw on the Masters a couple or three years ago that they have some big ol' nursery as part of the Augusta National lands on which they had meticulously growing, among other things, a full-size replica of the Eisenpine.
