A Shot in the Dark

Rabbi Goldstein and two of his congregants. Dr. Jacobson and Mr. Rosenberg, went out one morning to play a round of golf. Unfortunately, the three men were waiting for a particularly slow group of golfers.

Mr. Rosenberg: What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!

Doctor Jacobson: I don't know, but I've never seen such terrible golfers!

Rabbi Goldstein: Here comes the greens keeper. Let's have a word with him. (To the groundskeeper) Hi George. Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?

George: Oh, yes, that's a group of blind fire fighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime.

The group was silent for a moment.

Rabbi Goldstein: That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight.

Doctor Jacobson: Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them.

Mr. Rosenberg: Why can't these guys play at night?
