I hit a guy who waved me to go ahead and tee off. He was to my right and about 40 yards away Low slicing drive hit him in the shin. I felt horrible but he probably felt worse. I still cringe at the thought of it

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

True Story: A friend of mine is an agent for the State Department's Diplomatic Security section and was assigned to protect the Dalai Lama on a trip to the USA. Then-Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura had an audience with the Lama, which resulted in the following exchange: JESSE: "Has your holiness ever seen the movie 'Caddyshack?'" LAMA: "No, I don't think I have." JESSE:"There was a great scene about you in it. The character quoted you as saying 'Gunga Galunga,' could you say that for me?" LAMA: Of course. Gunga Galunga. Secretary of State appalled, Jesse and the Lama amused, my friend in absolute tears. Good times, great moments in diplomatic history.
