The Golfer





A man was at the country club for his weekly round of golf. He began his
round with an eagle on the first hole and a birdy the second. On the third
hole he had just scored his first ever "hole in one" when his cell phone
rang.

It was a doctor notifying him that his wife had just been in a terrible
accident and was in critical condition and in the ICU.

The man told the doctor to inform his wife where he was and that the he'd
be there as soon as possible. As he hung up he realized he was leaving
what was shaping up to be his best ever round of golf. He decided to get
in a couple of more holes before heading to the hospital. He ended up
finishing all eighteen. He finished his round shooting a personal best 61
shattering the club record by five strokes and beating his previous best
game by more than 10.

He was jubilant, then he remembered his wife. Feeling guilty he dashed
to the hospital. He saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about his
wife's condition.

He doctor glared at him and shouted, "You went ahead and finished your
round of golf didn't you! I hope your proud of yourself! While you were out
for the past four hours enjoying yourself at the country club your wife has
been languishing in the ICU! Its just as well you went ahead and finished
that round because it will be more than likely your last! For the rest of
her life she will require 'round the clock care. And you'll be her care
giver!"

The man was feeling so guilty he broke down and sobbed. The doctor
started to snicker and said, "Just kidding! She died more than two
hours ago. What'd you shoot?"
