From: Steyr@yabbs To: all@yabbs Subject: Joke (cont) Date: Wed Aug 10 08:47:18 1994 (continued from post 668) "All I want for my birthday is a single pink golf ball". Jim's father looked at him in shock and said "Son ! You can have anything you want. Anything at all ! And all you want is a pink golfball ?" Jim replied "Yes dad, all I want is a single pink golfball.". A few days later, Jim's birthday rolls around, and Fred presents his son with a brightly wrapped gift which turns out to be a pink golfball. Jim jumped up and down excitedly, and thanked his dad profusely, then ran to his room. A short while later, all sorts of strange thumps and groans could be heard coming from his room. The pink golfball was never seen again. Time passed, and Christmas came around. Again, stuck for ideas, Fred asked his son what he would like for Xmas. Jim said "Dad, that pink golfball you got me was REALLY great, but it didn't last as long as I'd hoped. Do you think you could get me TWO pink golfballs for Xmas ?" After a brief discussion, Fred conceeded and went off to purchase two pink golfballs for his son's Xmas gift. Xmas day came around and Jim unwrapped his two pink golfballs, and immediately ran to his room where mysterious thumps, bangs, crashes, and groans could soon be heard.
