Dave’s Not Here.

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.
