I saw this news story and it made me think of the Joe Frank episode
entitled "Jam" in which the character "Samson" (played by David Cross,
I believe) talks about how he could die at any minute: I think the
quote goes something like, "I could be hit in the head by an errant
golf ball or some such nonsense" <br>

An Eatontown man whose eyesight was damaged in May 2006 when a golf
ball flew into his eye as he drove past Eagle Oaks Golf and Country
Club in Farmingdale has settled his suit against the club, a
neighboring homeowner and his landscaping contractor for a total
$725,000. A driving-range ball left Eagle Oaks' property and struck his
client in the eye, an account disputed by the golf course, which
claimed the ball could have been launched from Carl Capoano's property
that was getting mowed by a landscaping contractor at the same time.
Under terms of the settlement, none of the parties admitted guilt, but
Capoano and Canfield Lawn and Landscaping each paid $37,500, while
Eagle Oaks was hit for the remaining $650,000. After the accident,
Guhl's vision in the injured eye went from 20/20 to 20/100, and he most
likely will need a corneal. <i>Source NJ Lawyer Daily Briefing 8/1/08 </i></span></span></font></span></span></span></big></big></font></span></font></span></big></font></big><br>
