Walking out of church today I followed two older gentlemen having a conversation:
1st man: "how are you?"
2nd man: "fine"
1st man: "how's Mildred?"
2nd man: "fine"
2nd man: "We didn't hear any jokes today, did we?" (Ususally the priest starts his homily with a joke)
1st man looks confused, but says "nope" and keeps walking.
Sitting in the dealership waiting for my car:
Serviceman: "I think I'm in trouble with her."
Servicewoman: "What did you do?"
Serviceman: "I don't know and that's a problem."
Servicewoman: "You should call her."
The phone rings
Serviceman: "Hello?"
He becomes very quite and listens and then in a soft voice so none of his other co-workers can hear, "So then what can I do?" He repeats it over and over again, then listens some more. When he gets off the phone he is all smiles, so I figured he wasn't in trouble anymore.
