Towards the end of the golf course, Dave hit his ball into the
woods and found it in a patch of pretty yellow buttercups.

Trying to get his ball back in play, he ended up thrashing just
about every buttercup in the patch.

All of a sudden.....POOF!! In a flash and puff of smoke, a little
old woman appeared.

She said, "I'm Mother Nature! Do you know how long it took me to
make those buttercups? Just for doing what you have done, you won't
have any butter for your popcorn for the rest of your life: better
still, you won't have any butter for your toast for the rest of
your life..... As a matter of fact, you'll never have any butter
for anything the rest of your life!!!!!
Then POOF!......she was gone!

After Dave recovered from the shock, he hollered for his friend,
"Fred, where are you?"

Fred yells back "I'm over here in the pussy willows."

Dave shouts back, "DON'T SWING, Fred - FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T
SWING!"
