it is rare when one comes across true wit. but i have recently on two occasions. While still in the hospital i convinced my occupational therapist that we should partake in a community outing - to take the bus to the central library in downtown LA. i am an avid reader, after all. she agreed. After researching the route and bus line we took off one fine spring morning and caught the downtown shuttle bus headed to the library. I sat in between two young therapists, both beautiful young ladies. On the bus was an african american in his 30s. I commented to him,
"what a great day, huh? here i am in between two beautiful young ladies. What can be better than that," I rhetorically asked him.
Without pause and showing true wit he remarked in a deadpan manner, "a six pack of beer".
I had no reply. I was stunned by his comment.
I think you have great wit and that's why you hear it in others. This was a fun blog.
