Who is this?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have you heard this one ?

A man gets shipwrecked on a small island.

After a few days wandering, he comes across a tribe of natives who have just lost their chieftain.

The tribe's high priest tells the man that as he is the first outsider they have seen in twenty years, he must take three tests.

If he passes all three tests, the tribe will accept him as their new chief.

"Fair enough," says the man. "Just let me know what the tests are and I'll get right on them."

The priest takes him to a clearing with three straw huts in it, turns to the man and explains the tests.

"In the first hut, you'll find 20 gallons of our native beer. You must drink all of this to complete this test.

In the second hut is a gorilla with a sore tooth. You must pull his tooth and survive to pass this test.

In the third hut is the ex-chieftain's daughter. You must make love to her until she can take no more."

The man agrees and begins the first test.

Three hours later, he walks out of the hut unsteadily and goes toward the second hut.

The priest asks if he would like to have a rest, but the man says he wants to get all the tests done before he sleeps and enters the second hut.

After two hours he comes out covered from head to toe in blood and scratches and turns to the priest.

"Now lead me to the girl with the sore tooth."

Did I?

Play Golf or just spoil another walk?

As you walk off the course next time ask yourself the following questions:

Did I enjoy myself?

Have I signed my card?

Did I replace my divots and repair my pitch marks?

You should answer YES to them all!
