Golf and the Devil

A golfer is in a competitive match with a friend, who's ahead by a couple of strokes.

"Boy," the golfer mumbles, "I'd give anything to sink this putt."

Just then, a stranger walks up to him and whispers, "Would you be willing to give up one-fourth of your sex life?"

This guy is crazy, the golfer thinks as he lines up his shot. But maybe it's a good omen.

"Sure," he says, and sinks the putt.

Two holes later, the golfer thinks, "Gee, I sure would like to get an eagle on this one."

The stranger saunters over. As the golfer adjusts his grip, the stranger softly asks, "Would it be worth giving up another fourth of your sex life?"

Shrugging, the golfer replies, "Okay." And he makes an eagle!

On the final hole, the golfer needs another eagle to win.

Again, the stranger is at his side.

"Would winning this match be worth giving up the rest of your sex life?" the stranger asks.

"Definitely," the golfer replies, and he makes the eagle to win the game.

As the golfer is walking to the club house, the stranger catches up to him.

"I haven't really been fair with you because you don't know who I am," the stranger says with a smirk. "I'm the Devil, and from this day forward you will have no sex life."

"Nice to meet you," the golfer replies. "I'm Father O'Malley."
