A Funny for the Golfers

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Magdalena Dokic BK 3126272

golf ballA man and a friend are playing golf one day at their local golf course.

One of the guys is about to chip onto the green when he sees a long funeral procession on the road next to the course.

He stops in mid-swing, takes off his golf cap, closes his eyes, and bows down in prayer.

His friend says, "Wow, that is the most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen. You truly are a kind man."

The man then replies, "Yeah, well we were married 35 years."

This is too funny.  My husband had a friend who actually said something similar recently at a golf outing.  They were in the clubhouse waiting to pay and it was taking FOREVER!  There tee time was about to pass and the guy behind the counter was taking his sweet time- so my husband's friend stepped up to the counter and said- " Hey Buddy, do you mind hurrying up- my wife's funeral is at 2!?!?!  Hilarious!

Patricia - I don't even know any golfers but it struck a funny chord with me.

Todd - the AR addiction is a pretty strong one.  Your site is not the traditional real estate site.  Interesting.   How's it working for you as far as contacts?  I'm in the process of totally revamping (replacing?) mine.

Neal, a day off is absolutely necessary.  We don't want anyone stressed out from working too hard.  It looks like you and Matt had lots of fun.

Matthew - ha ha ha.  The security guard must have good leg muscles by now.  I hear there's folks who can make a decent living retrieving lost golf balls....all thanks to those such as yourself.  Thanks or the chuckle.
