Funny story

I dreamed of a very funny conversation last night. And thought, well, that's what I can post on my blog tomorrow. It's been long since I posted. Glad I've finally got something to say.

In the morning, I'd forgotten the funny conversation.

Well, here it is anyway.

What? ... Yes, that's it.

This reminded me of a dear friend, now ensconced in UK, who endeared herself to me forever, when we were kids, with her vagueness.

One morning, in the college canteen, she disrupted an ongoing conversation in characteristic style to say, "Did you read that funny news about that man in the paper today?"

"No, which man?"

"Don't know. Forgot his name. But he did something very funny."

Pause.

"What?"

"Don't know. Can't remember. But it was funny."
