Imaginary Golf Balls

"No Progress"

A lady had been seeing the psychoanalyst
for years, pouring out her heart to him twice
a week. However, she was making no
progress, and the doctor didn't believe
she ever would.

"Mrs. Porter," he said at the end of one
session, "do you think these visits are
doing you any good?"

"Not really," she said. "My inferiority
complex is as strong as ever."

"Mrs. Porter," the doctor said, "I have
something to tell you. You don't have
an inferiority complex. You are, in fact,
inferior."

"Imaginary Golf Balls"

A golfer went to see his doctor. He was
suffering from major stress syndrome.
The doctor asked him if he played golf, to
which the golfer replied, "I play at it, it's a very
frustrating game, but I love it".

The doctor told him that the next time he
played, he should use an imaginary ball.
The golfer was a little embarrassed, but
he decided to give it a try.

The first golfer explained that his doctor had
told him to play a round of golf with an imaginary
ball to relieve his stress, and it was working.
Well, of course, the second golfer said he had
stress and asked if it would be all right to play
with an imaginary ball also. The first golfer said,
"Sure!".

They now approach the 18th hole, short par 4,
and both men are tied to this point in their round.
The second golfer teed his imaginary ball, took
a stroke, and started jumping up and down
shouting, "Ace! I win!"

The first golfer only turned to him, smiled, and
said, "No, I won..... That was my ball."
