Sunday, July 24, 2005Gadgets, Sports and Bodily Fluids
It was hot. I was tired. My jog dissolved into a walk, and not long after that a couple passed me on the trail.
They didn't seem to be married. Something about them suggested that they didn't know each other well. Something about them suggested that this was their first date. He was doing the talking.
... and the amazing thing is,
he was saying, every since I
got my HDTV when I watch an NBA game I can see the beads of
sweat on their foreheads.
His sentence trailed off and he seemed to be waiting for her to confirm the wonder of it all.
What an incredible sentence. What a textbook example of what not to do on a first date.
He was doing all the talking. He was talking about gadgets. And he was talking about sports. And he was talking about bodily fluids.
I waited for her response.
"Oh," she said.
