That's hillarious
Along the lines of funny things I hear today:

Saturday night I was at a bar playing pool with a friend who works for an insurance company. One of the guys we were playing against was kind of an ass, a fact which kept coming up in conversation.

So my buddy goes into work today, and who does he see?

The guy works with him! lol
Sits in the cubicle almost directly across form him.
Apparently, the guy didn't even remember playing pool on Sat.
Some people shouldn't drink, at all.:
Anyway, small world... a small Zen Judaist of a world.
