Just couldn't pass this up

A man goes to the confessional. "Forgive me father, for I have

sinned."

"What is your sin, my son?" the priest asks back.

"Well," the man starts, "I used some horrible language this week and

feel

absolutely terrible."

"When did you use this awful language?" asks the priest.

"Well, I was golfing and hit an incredible drive that looked like it

was

going to go over 280 yards, but it struck a phone line that was

hanging over

the fairway and fell straight down to the ground after going only

about 100

yards."

"Is that when you swore?"

"No, Father," says the man. "After that, a squirrel ran out of the

bushes

and grabbed my ball in his mouth and began to run away."

"Is THAT when you swore?" asks the Father again.

"Well, no." says the man. "You see, as the squirrel was running, an

eagle

came down out of the sky, grabbed the squirrel in his talons and began

to

fly away!"

"Is THAT when you swore?" asks the amazed Priest.

"No, not yet," the man replies. "As the eagle carried the squirrel

away in

his claws, it flew over a bit of forest near the green and the

squirrel

dropped my ball."

"Did you swear THEN?" asked the impatient Priest.

"No, because as the ball fell, it struck a tree, bounced through some

bushes, careened off a big rock, and rolled through a sand trap onto

the

green and stopped within six inches of the hole."

Silence filled the confessional until the Priest sighed and said, "You

missed the *ucking putt, didn't you?"
