Golf joke of the month:
Ken a business executive had retired and was discussing the joys of his new leisure time. During the conversation, he remarked that he had been compelled to give up skiing, a sport he had enjoyed for many, many years.
“Afraid of injuries?” asked a friend.
“Well, now I am,” he responded. “Before, I could drag a cast into work and still do my job, but now I’d be messing up my golf game!”
