Subject: Cabbies
During one of those rare times when Mrs JimJr and I were using a cab, because of parking problems, I hailed one.
As he was stopping she said, "Now please don't fraternize yourself into a big tip."
Don't ya love how barbers and cab drivers can converse on damn near any subject ? A New York taxi driver had his own explanation for a possible collision between Earth and a meteor, after several movies were made on the subject.
"Well, ya know, throwing all those things into space, ya gotta expect they'll throw a few back now and again."
In Washington DC, two D.A.R. ladies hailed a cab and asked to be taken to the meeting of the Daughters of the American Revolution at Constitution Hall.
The cab driver looked them over dubiously and said: "If it's all the same to you ladies, take some other cab. I ain't hauling no revolutionists 'round in MY cab !"
As cab drivers oftentimes do, the driver was darting in and out of heavy traffic with complete abandon. After a few hair raising blocks, his passenger leaned forward and said, "Would you please be more careful ? I have six children at home."
"Scheesch lady." murmured the cabbie. "You got six kids and ya got the nerve to tell ME to be careful ?"
One cabbie, obviously a philosopher-type was replying to his passenger's comment on the heavy stop-and-go traffic.
"Yeah. I'll bet that most of the streets in this city that intersect are sorry afterwards."
