One fine afternoon at a golf course, two men were just finishing up the front nine when they decided to take a breather in the clubhouse. They went up to the  lounge   room  and sat down and ordered a glass of beer. They started flipping   thru  the　channels when they decided to watch the news. The first thing that was on was a woman about to comit   suicide.

　　The first man says, "I  bet  you 100 dollars that she is gonna jump."

　　The second man, says, "OK, but I raise your 100 to 200 dollars saying she is not going to jump."

　　About four seconds after they were done making the bet, she leapt off the building, falling 17 stories, she hit the ground with a bone crunching sound.

　　As the loser of the bet started to get his wallet out of his back pocket the other man butted in to stop him.

　　"Listen, I can't take your money, I saw this earlier today and I knew she was gonna jump."

　　"So did I," the man said, I just didn't think she was dumb enough to do it again."
