A little humor to brighten everyones day. An old joke with a mortgage twist. Enjoy
One beautiful, calm summer day Jesus and Moses decided to play a round of golf. When they arrived at the country club they ran into an elderly gentleman and a sub prime mortgage lender and decided to play a foursome.
Moses was up first. He studied the layout, approached the ball after 3 practice swings and beautifully hit the ball directly towards the pin. It wasn’t until the ball was in the air that Moses noticed the pond right before the green and the ball was falling fast right into it. Without thinking Moses raised his club as if it were a staff and the water immediately parted right down the middle, the ball landed on the dry bottom of the pond and bounced out right on to the green and stopped about 3 feet from the pin.
Next up was Jesus. As he approached the ball after just one practice swing, he ever so graciously crushed the ball into a line drive directly towards the pin. As the ball was approaching the pond which now was rough with waves from the water rushing back down from Moses hit, he realized it would not make it over the water. In a voice with great authority he shouted “Be Still” and the waves immediately stopped, the lake became like glass. As the ball landed on the lake the water did not give but instead the ball just rolled across the lake on top of the water and onto the green settling about 6 inches from the cup.
The elderly gentleman was up next and without even so much as a practice shot or line up he just swung his club and the ball went soaring high into the air. A bald Eagle was flying by and grabbed the ball from mid air and brought it back to its nest high in a tree. As the Eagle set the ball in the nest it rolled out onto a branch where a squirrel put it in its mouth and ran down the tree and across the field. A hawk swooped down and grabbed the squirrel and as he was carrying him away the squirrel let the ball go right over the same pond. As the ball hit the pond and sunk a very large fish swallowed the ball and swam to the bank of the lake and spit the ball out onto the green and it rolled to a fraction of an inch of the cup. The elderly gentleman tapped his club on the ground and an earthquake shook the earth until his ball dropped right into the cup for a hole in one and at the same time caused both Moses and Jesus’ balls to roll backwards into the pond.
At this time Moses looked at Jesus and said “Man I Hate Playing With Your Father”
If your like everyone else who reads this and is wondering what happened to the sub prime mortgage lender… The answer is “so am I”
