Golf and Love Story
> An elderly couple were having dinner one evening when the husband
> reached across the table, took his wife's hand in his and said, "Martha,
> soon we will be married 50 years, and there's something I have to know.
> In all of these 50 years, have you ever been unfaithful to me?"
>
>
> Martha replied, "Well Henry, I have to be honest with you. Yes, I've
> been unfaithful to you three times during these 50 years, but always for
> a good reason.
>
> Henry was obviously hurt by his wife's confession, but said, "I never
> suspected. Can you tell me what you mean by 'good reasons?'"
>
>
> Martha said, "The first time was shortly after we were married, and we
> were about to lose our little house because we couldn't pay the
> mortgage. Do you remember that one evening I went to see the banker and
> the next day he notified you that the loan would be extended?"
>
>
> Henry recalled the visit to the banker and said, "I can forgive you for
> that. You saved our home, but what about the second time?"
>
>
> Martha asked, "And do you remember when you were so sick, but we didn't
> have the money to pay for the heart surgery you needed? Well, I went to
> see your doctor one night and, if you recall, he did the surgery at no
> charge."
>
>
> "I recall that," said Henry. "And you did it to save my life, so of
> course I can forgive you for that. Now tell me about the third time."
>
>
> "All right," Martha said. "So do you remember when you ran for president
> of your golf club, and you needed 73 more votes?"
>
> ***
