Chatterboxes

The talked and they talked. Loudly. The three of them talked and laughed and joked for the whole flight. Their chatter never let up.

And what is it with all these big cars people drive these days? one of them said.

They can hardly park the things, said another.

That's why I drive a Tahoe, said the third. It's just the right size. Not as big as a Suburban. Easier to turn around than a Hummer.

Forgive me for being uncharitable. I mean they clearly had a good time, and they certainly did no one any harm -- except maybe that fool with the Tahoe.

But you see the talking never stopped. It just kept coming and coming for 2 1/2 hours. I had a sore throat from listening by the time the flight ended.
