Suppose I dont pay that $150, I says to him, and suppose I dont pay that bar bill that I got beat out of because they just as good as told me the drinks was free. What will you do about it.
Nothing, he says, only you will be fired from the club.
Is that all you will do to me, I says, and he says yes.
Well, I says, I am fired and you can take your golf club and go and jump in the Des Plaines river with it.
So your going to stick us for $227.50, he says.
Yes I am, I says.
All right, he says, its worth more than that to have you quit.
I will quit you next time I see you, I says. I will quit you right in the jaw. And then I hung up on him.
Well Charley I wish I had of stopped that check I give Thomas and then I wouldent of been nothing out only what I payed for the balls I lost because I guess I can sell my bag and the clubs. And I got there silver presidents cup that I win fair and square and I would of win the $50 from Thomas only for some preserved peaches that I eat that poisoned me. So all and all I dident come out so bad. But dont never mention golf or golf club around me because its a baby game and they dont nobody only babys play it and if I couldent go out and practice it a wk. or 2 and then beat any of them I would shoot myself provided I felt good.
