The Imp of the Perverse

This phrase was first used by Edgar Allen Poe.  Remember in the Tell Tale Heart a boarder kills an old man because he can't stand to look at his pale blue eye. He dismembers him and buries him under the floor boards of the house.  While he had been killing the old man, the old man had shrieked.  The neighbors call the police.  The boarder is all cool, calm and collected until he begins to hear the thump, thump, thump of a heart beat getting louder and louder.  Surely the police can hear it!  He screams and yells to pull up the floor boards to silence the heart.  Ok.  I remember that from school.  What's that got to do with golf?
