A golfer was having a particularly bad outing, losing ball after ball as he hooked and sliced from each tee. After he made the turn to the tenth hole, he noticed an old man sitting down near the tee box. "Hey old man, can you help me out by walking down the fairway and spotting my ball after I tee off? I'm really tired of losing so many out here.", the golfer asked the old man. The old man replied, "Sure, sonny, no problem." The golfer, then reconsidered and asked the old man, "Are you sure you are going to be able to see my shot? Your glasses seem kind of thick." The old man replied, "Sonny, I can see sharp as an eagle. I never miss a thing." The golfer replied, "Okay, I guess that will work. Why don't you go down there now and watch my ball." So the old man walked down the side of the fairway, turned back toward the tee and signaled that he was ready. The golfer then teed it up, took a firm swing, and crushed the ball at least 235 yards down the fairway before the ball took a wicked hop and bounced into the rough a few feet from where the old man was standing. The golfer picked up his bag and walked down the fairway, and when he didn't see his ball he said to the old man, " Hey old man, where's my ball?" The old man replied, "I don't know." The golfer retorted, "what do you mean you don't know?!! I thought you were watching my shot!!!" The old man replied, "I was watching it, I saw it the whole way." Infuriated, the golfer snapped, "SO IF YOU WERE WATCHING IT, WHERE THE HELL IS IT??!!!" The old man replied, "I don't know I forgot."
