Moving On...


OK, like, I need to find a way to bridge between the previous post and any lightheaded future post, Eh?

So, since I am a big believer in remembering with a smile, here's something that Oz would have highly appreciated, especially since The JohnnyB was one of his best buddies.


Sent to me by Michelle, and definitely dedicated to The JohnnyB...



A man walks into the street and manages to get a taxi just going by.


He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing. You're just like Frank."

Passenger:
"Who?"

Cabbie:
"Frank Feldman. He's a guy who did everything right - all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Frank Feldman every single time."

Passenger:
"There are always a few clouds over everybody."

Cabbie:
"Not Frank Feldman. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy."

Passenger:
"Sounds like he was something really special."

Cabbie:
"There's more... He had a memory like a computer. Could remember everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank Feldman, he could do everything right."

Passenger.
"Wow, some guy then."

Cabbie:
"He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Frank, he never made a mistake."

Passenger.
"Mmm, there's not many like him around."

Cabbie:
"And, he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished to go - he was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Frank Feldman."

Passenger:
"An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"

Cabbie:
"Well, I never actually met Frank."

Passenger:
"Then how do you know so much about him?"

Cabbie: "I married his fucking widow!!!".

FUNNY!
 

Funny and quite poingnant, as we do tend to idolize the dead.

My favorite part is:

"He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank Feldman, he could do everything right". . . .
