The old golfer.
Arthur is 90 years old. He's played golf every day since his retirement 25 years ago.

One day he arrives home looking downcast. 'That's it,' he tells his wife. 'I'm giving up golf. My eyesight has gotten so bad that once I've hit the ball I couldn't see where it went.'

His wife sympathizes and makes him a cup of tea. As they sit down she says, 'Why don't you take my brother with you and give it one more try.'

'That's no good' sighs Arthur, 'your brother's a hundred and three. He can't help.'

'He may be a hundred and three', says the wife, 'but his eyesight is perfect.'

So the next day Arthur heads off to the golf course with his brother-in-law. He tees up, takes an almighty swing and squints down the fairway.

He turns to the brother-in-law. 'Did you see the ball?'

'Of course I did!' replied the brother-in-law. 'I have perfect eyesight'.

'Where did it go ?' says Arthur.

'I don't remember.'

And the worst part was that they had to stop to pee 5 times before they got to the 1st tee.

You haven't heard of "Depends for Golfers?" They look something like what this dork is wearing.

This would probably be funny if it were not for the fact that I play with guys like this but at least they can find their ball, or I can show it to them. For me you would simply need a wider fairway.

The mens morning league has a guy with alzheimers, his daughter drops him off and plays nine with the other retired guys. Doesn't
remember much but how to swing.
