Last week, on the subway:
Guy: ...and I said, Dude, I lack your sense of urgency. I mean, I used to work in an AIDS hospice - if stuff didn't get delivered on time, people died. In my new job, a guitar string doesn't get delivered on time, they, what, play one less song tonight?
Donut shop, yesterday.
Old lady: ...so my husband springs out of bed, he just can't wait to get out and - go to the tavern.
Guy in line-up: ...Where he sits at a table and talks to his friends all day , just like you're doing.
Old lady: No.
Guy in lineup: Yeah. Same activity, different drink. I mean, it's ok if coffee is your beverage of choice --
Old lady: I'd have a Singapore Sling, but they don't serve them here.
Old guy at her table: I had a coffee and a Singapore Sling last Christmas.
Another old guy: Hey, I'll give you seven dollars if you'll make me a Singapore Sling.
