Bill was a really nice fellow, but not much of a golfer. On the first tee, he sliced the ball so
badly it sailed over the trees and through an open window of a nearby house. Bill took another
ball out of his bag and played on.
He was just finishinng the 18th hole, when a police officer approached him and asked, "Are
you the fellow who hit the ball through the window of that house on the first tee?"
"Yes, I am," answered Bill.
"I think you should know," said the officer, "that your ball knocked over a lamp in the living
room, which scared the dog, who ran out of the house and accross the highway. A driver
swerved to avoid the dog, and collided with an oncoming vehicle. Five people were injured."
"Oh my God!!!" said Bill, shocked to hear the story. "Is there anything I can do?"
"Yes," said the officer. "Try keeping your head down and closing up your stance a bit."
