What a fool I was
So I was walking back from town this afternoon, about one o'clock, and was inspired to stop for lunch at this Italian restaurant which is on the way. I went in and asked if I could see the lunch menu.

What? She asked.

The lunch menu, I replied. Could I look at it?

We're not open today, she said.

Well of course not. What kind of fool would have thought that a restaurant would be open on a Saturday lunchtime? Even if the sign in the window did say "Monday-Saturday 12:00-14:00".

:crazy:

4. That is EXACTLY the proper response...
or, in the alternative, you can turn beet red, stammer incoherently, and knock something over as you bumble your way out.

i'm so alternative.

5. I would be inclined to agree that it was merely a figment
of my imagination, if I hadn't actually had dinner there before on a few occasions. :hi:
