    Santa and Banta head out for a quick round of golf. Since they are short on time, they decide to play only 9 holes.
    Santa says to Banta, `Let`s say we make the time worth the while, at least for one of us, and spot Rs 500 on the lowest score for the day.`

    "What do you mean cheat? I found my ball sitting right here!"
    "And a liar, too!", Santa says with amazement. `I`ll have you know I`ve been standing on your ball for the last five minutes!`"

  • Where`s the ball? 'How was your golf game, dear?' asked Jack`s wife Tracy.
    'Well, I was hitting pretty well, but my eyesight`s gotten so bad I couldn`t see where the ball went.'
    'But you`re seventy-five years old, Jack!' admonished his wife, 'Why don`t you take my brother Scott along?'
    'But he`s eighty-five and doesn`t even...
  • Santa facing Lee In a Test between India and Australia, the fiery Bret Lee was sending quivers down the Indian spine. The new batsman, our Santa, walked slowly to the crease, not feeling unlike a lamb at the slaughter house.
