A few weeks back, the phone rang late on a Sunday afternoon. When I answered it, the voice on the other end said, “Hey Dave, your team got smoked and you owe me a case of beer, buddy.” I said “you’ve got a wrong number.”
He laughed and said “Ya right. Don’t give me that.” I said, “No seriously, this is not Dave.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end. Then he said “Hey buddy, you almost had be going there.” So, once again I said “This is not Dave.”
Then the voice said “Come on Dave, buddy. You owe me a case of beer and you know it.”
Finally, I was starting to get annoyed with this game so I said “You’re right. I lost and I do owe you a case of beer. Tell you what, why don’t you come on over? I will throw some steaks on the grill and we will have a party.
The voice on the other end said “Great. I will be there in 15 minutes.”
Well, the caller never showed up at my door and I can only speculate as to what happened with Dave. Oh well, I tried.
