George the Golfer

Post by ILikeStilettos »

George was an avid golfer, in fact his life practically revolved around the game. One day as he was going downhill in his cart he lost control and the cart rolled over his right arm, badly crushing it and the shoulder joint. By the time he got to the hospital, the arm was not viable and they had to completely amputate.

A few months later he was being fitted for a prosthesis, but the technician explained that he would have very limited use of it and it was unlikely he would ever be able to swing a club again.

George became even more depressed and decided that if he couldn't play golf, life was not worth living. So he climbed out on the roof of a ten story building and stood on the edge, ready to throw himself off. Just at that moment, he noticed an armless man coming down the street: dancing, skipping, whooping and generally having a great time. George felt ashamed of his behavior and wanted to ask the guy how he kept his spirits up.

He rushed down the stairs and finally caught up with the guy.

George: "You know I was just about to kill myself because I lost my arm and can't play golf anymore, but look at you! You have no arms and yet you seem to be having a great life. What's the secret? How do you stay so happy?"

Armless Man: "I'm not happy at all ... my balls itch something awful!"

Man, that's a rough one. Guess he has to rub one off. Considering he can't wash them his friends probably call him crusty.
