Who’s Watching Out for Whom?
(Originally in English)
A man came home from playing golf, and his
wife asked, “How was your golf game?” He
said, “I was hitting pretty well, but my
eyesight has gotten so bad that I couldn’t see
where the ball went!” So the wife said,
“You’re 75 years old, Jack! What do you
expect? Why don’t you take my brother along?”
Jack said, “But he’s 85! And he doesn’t even
play golf anymore!” And the wife said, “But he
has perfect eyesight! At least he could watch
your ball for you.”
So, the next day Jack took the brother-in-law
with him to play golf. And while the brother
looked on, Jack swung. But the ball
disappeared somewhere. So Jack asked his
brother-in-law, “Did you see it?” And the
brother answered, “Yes! I saw it, alright!”
So Jack said, “Yes? Where is it?” And the
brother answered, “Well, I... I forgot!”

无济于事
　有一个人打完高尔夫球回家后，他太太问他：

「你的高尔夫球赛打得如何？」他说：「我打

得非常好，但是我的视力变得很差，使我看不

清楚球落到哪里去了！」他太太就说：「杰克，

你都已经七十五岁了，还能指望什么？你为什

么不带我哥哥一起去呢？」杰克说：「可是他

已经八十五岁了，而且也不再打高尔夫球了。」

他太太说：「但是他的视力很好，至少可以帮你

盯着球啊！」 于是隔天杰克就带着大舅子一起去

打高尔夫球，大舅子在旁边看着他挥杆，可是球

还是不见了。他问大舅子说：「你有看到球吗？」

大舅子答：「有啊！我看得很清楚！」杰克问：

「那球在哪里呢？」他回答说：「呃…我…我忘记了！」
