Learning to Swim

"Learning to Swim"

A member of the Country Club asked the lifeguard
how he might go about teaching a young lady to swim.

"It takes considerable time and technique." replied the
guard. "First you must take her into the water, then place
one arm about her waist, hold her tightly, then take her
right arm and raise it very slowly..."

"This is certainly most helpful." said the member. "I know
that my kid sister will appreciate it."

"Your sister?" said the lifeguard. "In that case, just push her
into the deep end of the pool. She'll learn in a hurry."

"Free Golf"

Finally having scraped enough money together for a trip
to the Bahamas, Todd arrived only to learn that the hotel
at which he wanted to stay, the St. Regis, charged $200
a day. Although that included a continental breakfast, the
pool and free golf, he simply couldn't afford that much
money. Dragging his gear around town, he finally found
a hotel every bit as nice but only cost $50 a day. Settling
in, he decided to get in a few rounds of golf before sunset.

Bringing his clubs to the hotel course, he went to buy a
three-pack of balls from the Pro Shop.

"That will be $100," said the man behind the counter.

"What?" screamed Todd, "That is outrageous? They're
free at the St. Regis!"

"Yes," said the man, "but at the St. Regis they get you by
the rooms.
