The Golfers

One of the regular foursome was sick, so a new member named George filled in. He was very good and pleasant company so they asked him to join them again the following Sunday. „9.30 okay?“George said, „Fine, but I may be about ten minutes late. Wait for me.“The following Sunday George showed up right on time. Not only that he played left-handed and beat them.They agreed to meet the following Sunday at 9.30. George again said, „Okay, but I may be about ten minutes late. Wait for me.“The next Sunday there was George, punctual to the dot. This time he played right-handed and beat them again. „Okay, for 9.30 next Sunday?“ one of the foursome asked.George said, „Sure if I?m ten minutes late?“Another golfer jumped in. „Wait a minute? You always say you may be ten minutes late. But you?re always right on time and you beat us whether you play right or left handed.“George said, „Well, that?s true ? I?m superstitious. If I wake up and my wife is sleeping on her right side, I play right-handed. If she?s sleeping on her left side, I play left-handed.““What if she?s lying on her back?“George said, „That?s when I?m ten minutes late!“
