True and Un-exaggerated Rules of Golf
Real, True and Un-exaggerated Rules of Golf 1. If you really want to get better at golf, go back and take it up at a much earlier age. 2. The game of golf is 90% mental and 10% mental. 3. Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three. 4. When you look up and cause an awful shot, you will always look down again at exactly the moment when you ought to continue watching the ball if you ever want to see it again. 5. Any change works for a maximum of three holes and a minimum of not at all. 6. No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse. 7. Never try to keep more than 30 separate thoughts in your mind during your swing. 8. When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either hit one more club or two more balls. 9. If you're afraid a full shot might reach the green while the foursome ahead of you is still putting out, you have two options: you can immediately shank a lay-up, or you can wait until the green is clear and top a ball halfway there. 10. The less skilled the player, the more likely he is to share his ideas about the golf swing. 11. The inevitable result of any golf lesson is the instant elimination of the one critical unconscious motion that allowed you to compensate for all your errors. 12. If it ain't broke, try changing your grip. 13. Golfers who claim they don't cheat, also lie. 14. Everyone replaces his divot after a perfect approach shot. 15. A golf match is a test of your skill against your opponent's luck. 16. It's surprisingly easy to hole a 50-foot putt when you lie 10. 17. Counting on your opponent to inform you when he breaks a rule is like expecting him to make fun of his own haircut. 18. Nonchalant putts count the same as chalant putts. 19. It's not a gimme if you're still away. 20. The shortest distance between any two points on a golf course is a straight line that passes directly through the center of a very large tree. 21. There are two kinds of bounces: unfair bounces, and bounces just the way you meant to play it. 22. You can hit a 2-acre fairway 10% of the time, and a 2-inch branch 90% of the time. 23. Every time a golfer makes a birdie, he must subsequently make two triple bogeys to restore the fundamental equilibrium of the universe. 24. If you want to hit a 7-iron as far as Tiger Woods does, simply try to lay up just short of a water hazard.TOP

If I want to hear the pitter patter of little feet, I'll put.shoes on my cat. Does your train of thought have a caboose? Did the aliens forget to remove your anal probe? Errors have been made. Others will be blamed. Let me show you how the guards used to do it. And just how may I screw you over today? And your crybaby whiny-assed opinion would be...? I'm not crazy, I've just been in a very bad mood for 30 years. If only you'd use your powers for good instead of evil... See no evil, hear no evil, date no evil. A PBS mind in an MTV world. Allow me to introduce my selves. Sarcasm is just one more service we offer. Whisper my favorite words: "I'll buy it for you." Better living through denial. Whatever kind of look you were going for, you missed. Suburbia: where they tear out the trees & then name streets.after them. Adult child of alien invaders. Do they ever shut up on your planet? I'm just working here till a good fast-food job opens up. Are those your eyeballs? I found them in my cleavage. I'm not your type. I'm not inflatable. I'm trying to imagine you with a personality. A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door. Stress is when you wake up screaming & you realize you haven't.fallen asleep yet. Here I am! Now what are your other two wishes? Back off! You're standing in my aura. I can't remember if I'm the good twin or the evil one. Don't worry. I forgot your name, too! Adults are just kids who owe money. One of us is thinking about sex... OK, it's me. How many times do I have to flush before you go away? I have a computer, a vibrator, & pizza delivery. Why should I leave the house? I just want revenge. Is that so wrong? It's sick the way you people keep having sex without me. I work 40 hours a week to be this poor. You say I'm a bitch like it's a bad thing. Can I trade this job for what's behind door #2? Okay, okay, I take it back! UnScrew you! Macho Law forbids me from admitting I'm wrong. Nice perfume. Must you marinate in it? Not all men are annoying. Some are dead.

I thought I wanted a career, turns out I just wanted paychecks. How do I set a laser printer to stun? Meandering to a different drummer. I'm not tense, just terribly, terribly alert. I majored in liberal arts. Will that be for here or to go? If you mixed vodka with orange juice and milk of magnesia, would you get a Philip's Screwdriver? Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack? Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery? If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled? Why do women wear evening gowns to nightclubs?

Why do overlook and oversee mean opposite things? If horrific means to make horrible, does terrific mean to make terrible? Why isn't 11 pronounced onety one? "I am " is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language. Could it be that "I do " is the longest sentence?

Do Roman paramedics refer to IV's as "4's"?

Include Your Children When Baking Cookies If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? Q. What does HMO stand for? A. This is actually a variation of the phrase, "Hey, Moe!" Its roots go back to a concept pioneered by Doctor Moe Howard, who discovered that a patient's complaints could be treated effectively with a firm, two-fingered poke in the eyes. Modern practice replaces the physical finger poke with hi-tech equivalents such as voice mail and referral slips, but the result remains the same: you no longer consider the original health problem to be so annoying after dealing with these other, distracting annoyances. Q. Do all diagnostic procedures require pre-certification? A. No. Only those you need. Q. I just joined a new HMO. How difficult will it be to choose the doctor I want? A. Just slightly more difficult than choosing your parents. Your insurer will provide you with a book listing all the doctors who were participating in the plan two years ago at the time the book was prepared. These doctors fall into two basic categories: those who are no longer accepting new patients, and those who will see you but are no longer part of the plan. But don't worry-the remaining doctor who is still in the plan and accepting new patients has an office just a half day's drive away! Q. What are pre-existing conditions? A. This is a phrase used by the grammatically challenged when they want to talk about existing conditions. Unfortunately, we appear to be pre-stuck with it. Q. Well, can I get coverage for my pre-existing conditions? A. Certainly, as long as they don't require any treatment. Q. What happens if I want to try alternative forms of medicine? A. You'll need to find alternative forms of payment. Q. My pharmacy plan only covers generic drugs, but I need the name brand. I tried the generic medication, but it gave me a stomach ache. What should I do? A. Poke yourself in the eye. Q. I have an 80/20 plan with a $200 deductible and a $2,000 yearly cap. My insurer reimbursed the doctor for my out-patient surgery, but I'd already paid my bill. What should I do? A. You have two choices. Your doctor can sign the reimbursement check over to you, or you can ask him to invest the money for you in one of those great offers that only doctors and dentists hear about, like windmill farms or frog hatcheries. Q. What should I do if I get sick while traveling? A. Try sitting in a different part of the bus. Q. No, I mean what if I'm away from home and I get sick? A. You really shouldn't do that. You'll have a hard time seeing your primary care physician. It's best to wait until you return, and then get sick. Q. I think I need to see a specialist, but my doctor insists he can handle my problem. Can a general practitioner really perform a heart transplant right in his office? A. Hard to say, but considering that all you're risking is the $10 co-payment, there's no harm giving him a shot at it. Q. Will health care be any different in the next century? A. No, but if you call right now, you might get an appointment by then. 1. The 2 most common elements in the universe are hydrogen and stupidity. 2. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you. 3. Money can't buy happiness... But it sure makes misery easier to live with. 4. Deja Moo: The feeling that you've heard this bull before. 5. Psychiatrists say that 1 of 4 people are mentally ill. If you have 3 friends who are OK, then you're it. 6. Nothing in the known universe travels faster than a bad check. 7. It has recently been discovered that research causes cancer in rats. 8. The trouble with doing something right the first time is that nobody appreciates how difficult it was. 9. It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others. 10. The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think. 11. Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society. 12. Vital papers will demonstrate their vitality by moving from where you left them to where you can't find them. 13. Law of Probability Dispersal: Whatever it is that hits the fan will not be evenly distributed. In Case You Didn't Know...
