« Question | Main | Thank you note. »

Apr162007

Overheard this weekend...

A family trying to get into the (high security) Botanical Gardens.

The BG Employee/Guard: "We're closing in exactly 47 minutes. Do you still want to go in. It takes at least 90 minutes to see everything."

Family: "...um...sure. I guess."

BGEG: "Maybe I can help you with a discount, so you don't have to pay full price."

F: "That would be great!"

BGEG: "Are you a member of another Botanical Garden Society?"

F: "No."

BGEG: "Let me ask you again. ARE YOU A MEMBER OF ANOTHER BOTANICAL GARDEN SOCIETY?"

F: "Um...oh...sure, YES! We are actually."

BGEG: "Great, can I see your ID?"

Dad is quizzically patting his empty pockets.

F: "...???"

Don't mess with the Botanical Garden.
