Guy: "I was listening to the game on the radio, caulking a door, and they're up 6-1. I finish caulking the door and they give up 5 runs. I looked for another door to caulk, but once I figured out which one I could do, they ended up walking in the winning run. I think for the next game, I just need to build a new house. They should win by like 3 runs."

Worker #2: "That'd be a new record."
Worker #1: "No. He got here at 10:30 once."
Worker #2: "No. He didn't 'get here' at 10:30. He slept here overnight with that chick from billing and his dad kicked him out of the office after his board meeting. So technically, he got here at 2:00 the day before and just never left."

Cab Driver: "$250,000 for an apartment, and what for! You should be gettin' two places, a basement, a parking space for $250,000. And I don't want no damn apartment condo association telling me what to do. I remember this area used to not be pricey, now things are going up and up and up. What's with all the construction? This ain't construction, this is destruction."
