Golf Match

"Ransom"

A young corporate executive was sent a ransom
note saying that he was to bring $50,000 to the
17th hole of the country club at 10 o'clock the
next day if he ever wanted to see his wife alive
again.

He didn't arrive until almost 12:30. A masked
man stepped out from behind some bushes
and growled, "What took ya so long? You're
over two hours late."

"Hey! Give me a break." whined the executive.
"I have a 27 handicap."

"Golf Match"

A fellow is getting ready to tee-off on the first
hole when a second fellow approaches and
asks if he can join him. The first says that he
usually plays alone but agrees to let the second
guy join him.

Both are even after the first couple of holes. The
second guy says, "Say, we're about evenly
matched, how about we play for five bucks
a hole?"

The first fellow says that he usually plays alone
and doesn't like to bet but agrees to the terms.
Well, the second guy wins the rest of the holes
and as they're walking off of the eighteenth hole,
and while counting his $80.00, he confesses
that he's the pro at a neighboring course and
likes to pick on suckers.

The first fellow reveals that he's the Parish Priest
at the local Catholic Church to which the second
fellow gets all flustered and apologetic and offers
to give the Priest back his money. The Priest says,
"No, no. You won fair and square and I was foolish
to bet with you. You keep your winnings."

The pro says, "Well, is there anything I can do to
make it up to you?"

The Priest says, "Well, you could come to Mass on
Sunday and make a donation. Then, if you bring
your mother and father by after Mass, I'll marry
them for you."
