Swearing

A man goes to the confessional and says, "Forgive me Father,
for I have sinned."

"What is your sin, my child?" the Priest asks.

"Well," the man starts, "I used the 'F'-word today and I
feel so terrible."

"Why don't you tell me what happened. What made you use
such awful language?" asked the Priest.

"Well, I was out golfing and I hit this incredible drive
that looked like it was going to go over 250 yards, but
the ball hit a phone line hanging over the fairway and fell
straight down to the ground after going about 100 yards."

"I'm a golfer myself my son" said the Priest "I
understand what you were feeling. So this is when you
swore?"

"No Father," said the man, "You see, after that a
squirrel ran out of the bushes and grabbed my ball in his
mouth and began to run away."

"And this is when you swore?" asked the Father again.

"No not yet. Just as the squirrel was running away, this
eagle came down out of the sky and grabbed the squirrel in
his talons and began to fly away!"

"And it was then that you swore?" asked the amazed
Priest.

"No, not yet," replied the man, "Just as the eagle was
flying away with the squirrel he flew towards a wooded
area next to the green. And as he passed over it, the
squirrel dropped my ball."

"Did you swear then, my son?" asked the now impatient
Priest.

"No, because as the ball fell it struck a tree, bounced
through some bushes, careened off a big rock, and then
rolled through a sand trap and on to the green and stopped
dead six inches from the hole!" told the man.

The priest sighed, "You missed the f*cking putt, didn't
you?!! .
