After a particularly poor
game of golf, a popular club member skipped the clubhouse and started to go
home. As he was walking to the parking lot to get his car, a policeman stopped
him and asked, "Did you tee off on the sixteenth hole about twenty minutes ago?"
"Yes," the golfer responded.
"Did you happen to hook your ball so that it went over the trees and off the
course?"
"Yes, I did. How did you know?" he asked.
"Well," said the policeman very seriously, "Your ball flew out onto the highway
and crashed through a driver's windshield. The car went out of control, crashing
into five other cars and a fire truck. The fire truck couldn't make it to the
fire, and the building burned down. So, what are you going to do about it?"
The golfer thought it over carefully and responded...
"I think I'll close my stance a little bit, tighten my grip and lower my right
thumb." |
