Ya’ gotta love this guy!!!!! Meet Walter Barnes – a golfer.
All golfers should live so long as to be this kind of old man!
Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, “How
many of you have forgiven your enemies?” 80% held up their
hands.
The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time,
except one man, Walter Barnes, who attended church only when
the weather was bad.
“Mr. Barnes, it’s obviously not a good morning for golf. It’s good
to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?”
“I don’t have any,” he replied gruffly.
“Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?”
“Ninety-eight,” he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped
their hands.
“Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front & tell us all
how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in
the world?”
The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit,
turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply,
“I outlived all them mother fuckers”
– and he calmly returned to his seat.
