Towards the end of the golf course, Dave hit his ball into the
woods and found it in a patch of pretty yellow buttercups. Trying to get his
ball back in play, he ended up thrashing just about every buttercup in
the patch. All of a sudden. POOF ! In a flash and puff of smoke, a little
old woman appeared.
She said, "I'm Mother Nature! Do you know how long it took me to make those
buttercups? Just for doing what you have done, you won't have any butter for
your popcorn for the rest of your life: better still, you won't have any
butter for your toast for the rest of your life.... As a matter of fact,
you'll never have any butter for anything the rest of your life!!!!!"
Then POOF!...She was gone !
After
Dave recovered from the shock, he hollered for his friend, "Fred,
where are you?"
Fred yells
back "I'm over here in the pussy willows."
Dave shouts
back, "DON'T SWING, Fred; for the love of God, DON'T SWING!"
