Pink golf balls

Jenolan 13 April 2012 0 710

There was once a little boy who got very good grades, straight A's on every subject on every report card. His name was Billy. His father was very proud of him, and decided to give him one thing every year, whatever he wanted.

The little boy, for one odd reason or another, chose a pink golf ball, each and every year. So finally, when the boy was sixteen, the dad got fed up with it and bought him a car.

The son was fine with this, and took it on a joyride down to his favorite restaurant. He didn't want to drivethrough and he couldn't find a parking spot, but finally he found a spot on the other side of the street. He walked across happily, and halfway across, was hit by a truck.

On his deathbed, the wounds were fatal, he was asked by his father: “What did you do with the pink golf balls?”

The son replied: “Well I…” With that he died.

The moral of the story: you should look both ways before crossing the street.
