True Singaporean Spirit A priest, a doctor, a rich businessman (all Australians) and a Singaporean were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers in front of them.
The Singaporean fumed... 'What's with those jerks?
We're waiting fifteen minutes between shots!' The doctor chimed in, 'It’s true, but I've never seen such poor golf.’
The rich businessman called out, 'Move it, time is money!'
The priest said, 'Here comes the Marshall. Let's have a word with him.'
'Excuse me, sir!' said the priest, 'What's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?'
The greens keeper replied, 'Oh, yes. That's a group of blind fire fighters.
They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime.'
The group fell silent for a moment.
The priest said, 'That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight.'
The doctor said, 'Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything that he might be able to do for them.'
The rich businessman replied, 'I think I'll donate $50,000 to the fire fighters union in honor of these brave souls!'
And the Singaporean said, 'Tiu nia seng, why can't these guys play at night ??!!
' .... now, that's the true Singaporean spirit!!!!
