"New Game"

There was this Chinese businessman visiting
a newly acquired business in the United States.
As a gesture of good will, the executives of his
newly acquired business took him to a golf
course for a round of golf. He had never played
the game before.

Upon his return to China, his family asked what
he had done in the United States. He replied,
"Played most interesting game. Hit little white
ball with long stick in large cow pasture. Name
of game is "Oh crap!"

"Losing Golf Balls"

Sid and Barney head out for their usual 9 holes.
Sid offers Barney, "let's say we make the time
worth the while, at least for one of us, and spot
$5 on the lowest score for the day." Barney
agrees and they enjoy a great game. After the
8th hole, Barney is ahead by 1 stroke, but cuts
his ball into the rough on the 9th.

"Help me find my ball, you look over there," he
says to Sid. After 5 minutes, neither has had
any luck, and since a lost ball carries a four-point
penalty, Barney pulls a ball from his pocket and
tosses it to the ground. "I've found my ball!" he
announces triumphantly.

Sid looks at him forlornly, "After all the years
we've been friends, you'd cheat me on golf for
a measly five bucks?!?"

"What do you mean cheat? I found my ball
sitting right here!"

"And a liar, too!!!" Sid says with amazement.
"I'll have you know I've been standing on your
ball for the last five minutes!"
