GOLF AND MARRIAGE

After 30 years of marriage Jacqueline and her husband Mark go for counseling. When asked to describe her problems, Jacqueline goes into a passionate, painful tirade, listing every problem she and Mark have ever had in the 30 years they have been together. She goes on and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unfulfilled needs she has endured over the course of their marriage.

Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of time, the therapist gets up, walks around the desk and, after asking Jacqueline to stand, embraces, bends her backwards, kisses her passionately, down her neck, arms, hands . . . then raises his mouth to kiss her searingly upon the lips.

Mark watches with raised eyebrows and mouth wide open.

Jacqueline flushed, sits down as though in a total daze.

The therapist turns to Mark and says, "Now do you understand? This is what your wife needs at least three times a week! Can you do this?"

Mark thinks for a moment and replies, "Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays, I play golf."
