18 Holes<br />

My husband, an avid golf player couldn’t<br />

help challenging my boastful son to<br />

a game of golf. He was in for quite a<br />

surprise when on the first swing my son<br />

got a hole in one. “OK” my quick-thinking<br />

husband said while subtlety winking at<br />

me “now, I will take my practice shot, and<br />

then we will start.”<br />

After I waited patiently while my husband<br />

played a round of golf on our 18th<br />

wedding anniversary he and I went out to<br />

dinner at a lovely restaurant. We discussed<br />

many happy memories we’ve shared<br />

during the years. Then I said “Want to go<br />

for another 18?” “no” he replied “I think<br />

it’s too dark now.”<br />

A golfer hits a huge slice off the first<br />

tee. The ball soars over a fence and onto<br />

a highway, where it hits a car, which<br />

promptly crashes into a tree.<br />

The stunned golfer rushes into the golf<br />

shop and shouts, “Help! Help! I just hit a<br />

terrible slice off the first tee and hit a car<br />

and it crashed. What should I do?”<br />

And the pro says, “Try a slightly stronger<br />

grip.”<br />

On the phone with a golf buddy who has<br />

asked him to play, a guy says: “I am the<br />

master of my home and can play golf<br />

whenever I want. But hold on a minute<br />

while I find out if I want to.”<br />

THE BOSS ASKED FOR A<br />

LETTER DESCRIBING<br />

BOB SMITH:<br />

Bob Smith, my assistant<br />

programmer, can always be found<br />

hard at work in his cubicle. Bob<br />

works independently, without<br />

wasting company time talking<br />

to colleagues. Bob never thinks<br />

twice about assisting fellow<br />

employees, and he always finishes<br />

given assignments on time. Often<br />

Bob takes extended measures to<br />

complete his work, sometimes<br />

skipping coffee breaks. Bob is<br />

a dedicated individual who has<br />

absolutely no vanity in spite of his<br />

high accomplishments and profound<br />

knowledge in his field. I firmly<br />

believe that Bob can be classed as<br />

a high-caliber employee, the type<br />

which cannot be dispensed with.<br />

Consequently, I duly recommend<br />

that Bob be promoted to executive<br />

management, and a proposal will be<br />

executed as soon as possible.<br />
