A Funny for the Golfers

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.

Maggie,

I always love a goos golf story, but I love playing more when I can get away from the RE jungle.....see...I did manage a day off...but it was a mortgage broker,and worse one from Active Rain LoL!

We just played in the 1st annual A/R golf tournament in Florida

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.

Lysa - oh goodness no!  I hope not.  I'm sure your tourney will be fab.  Can't wait for your update.

Matthew - I'm glad you enjoyed it.  I don't play golf (unlike you and Neal...you pros you) but I still found it funny.  =)

Maggie.. did you look at those pics?  I think I make a great cart person... :-)  it was a lot of fun by the way
Posted by Matthew J Blum - (retired from the business) almost 5 years ago

Matthew - I did!  You mean you weren't really playing?  Just driving the cart here and there?  I told you I'm no pro when it comes to golf.  lol

Maggie I did play.. I was just saying not very well.. You can ask the security guard on the first hole who had to duck..:-).. ask Neal.. The ball ended up somewhere.. (where I don't know)...
Posted by Matthew J Blum - (retired from the business) almost 5 years ago
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.
