I’m coming out of Panera early in the morning after having my weekly whole wheat bagel smothered in butter and honey, when I see two pigeons having a fight.
The street’s pretty empty except for me and a chubby Latino lady, so I turn to her and say, “Look at them going at it…you know they must be married.”
Well, this woman started to laugh so hard I thought she’d explode.
“That is so funny,” she said, “I bet you’re right. I fight with my husband all the time. I just hope she doesn’t throw-em out like I have to throw out mine once in a while, to teach-em a lesson.”
I left her, still laughing, her cheeks puffed like big, tanned tomatoes.
If you go by her, I could’a had a helluva career…in the Catskills. 🙂

Your humor is contagious, explosively so in this case. Wish I could have seen and heard the exchange.

Susannah, you made her day. I bet she’s still chuckling over your comment.
Every now and then it’s funny how we make a humorous remark that sends others into over the top spasms. Last week I had a late lunch with a rowdy group of six in the teacher’s lounge. They must have been primed from previous innuendos, because when I added to one of their Viagra comments they went hysterical and told me I could eat with them anytime.
I can picture that women imagining her husband and herself as squirrels.

I guess we never knew we were so funny. I hope you, and those you love, have a wonderful holiday Skinny, and thanks, as always. 🙂

You’re funny. She was just so jolly at 6:30 in the morning. No wonder those birds were fighting. They were probably coming back from a party and were still drunk. 🙂
