The last time I golfed I only hit two good balls all day. ...and THAT was when I stepped on a rake in the sand trap.
I haven't spoken to my wife in over three months...we're not fighting, I just don't like to interrupt.

Most likely they fell from a plane. Not that an airline would admit to it because of law suits and instead quietly replace the “lost in transit” crates. The apples were not of a quality that anyone would transport by plane (or anything)
