Funny
Poop
The husband and wife were playing on the ninth green when she collapsed
from a heart attack. "Please dear,
I need help." she said.
The husband ran off saying
"I'll go get some help." A
little while later he returned, picked up his club and began to line up his
shot on the green.
His wife, on the ground, raised up
her head and said, "I'm may be dying and you're putting?"
"Don't worry dear. I found a
doctor on the second hole who said he come and help."
"The second hole??? When in the hell is he coming???"
"Hey! I told ya not to worry." he said,
practice stroking his putt. "Everyone's already agreed to let him
play through."
