Johnny & I are watching college basketball at the SideWalk.
Hey Ronnie, he says to a guy, & introduces me.
Ronnie says, Who're you rooting for?
Before Johnny can explain that he roots for the school that graduates the highest percentage of athletes, I say, Florida.
Are you from Florida? Ronnie says.
Nope, they have the cutest players.
He snorts. You sound like my sister. It was a sad day for her when the basketball shorts got baggy and long.
Same here, I say fervently.
My wife likes baseball, Johnny says. Jeter, he's her man.
Oh yeah? My sister, she likes— she likes—
David Justice, I say.
Right, Ronnie says, David Justice. How'd you do that?
Yeah, Johnny says, impressed. How'd you do that?
Johnny is impressed & that's the point of reading this random guy's mind. Right?
