He passes his country club on the way and decides that (as it's very early in the morning and no one else is around) it's quite safe to play a couple of holes of golf. He goes to the locker room, gets his clubs, tees up a ball and starts taking a few practice swings. At this point, Moses, who has been watching the whole thing from heaven, calls to God: "Hey boss, you'll never believe this; here it is Yom Kippur and look who's going to play golf--a rabbi!" God says, "I know all about it. Who do you think I am anyway? I not only know, but I'm going to punish him." The rabbi hits the ball, a beautiful drive, straight down the middle of the fairway, the ball lands on the green, drops into the cup, a hole in one. Moses says, "Hey boss, what goes on here? A rabbi plays golf on Yom Kippur, you say you're going to punish him, and he makes a hole in one!" God says, "So who can he tell?"
