Overheard on the train

So Wednesday night I'm sitting on the train headed home from work. In front of me there are these two middle-aged women talking to each other. Loud enough for everyone in the car to hear. They had just finished discussing in great detail another woman's divorce--including this "new Lexus every three years" part of her settlement. Then a subject change--one of them starts talking about this trip she had recently made to to Boston, which included a visit to Paul Revere's house. As she starts to describe what his house looks like, the other woman asks her "now what was it that Paul Revere was noted for?"

????????????????????????????????????????????

I just had to share that. Tomorrow, a return to knitting content.

oh brother - that's almost as bad as the guy we overheard at dinner last week saying that Rip Van Winkle was a real person.

Roger had to restrain me from getting up and going over to the table to correct him.

Witnessing idiocy in action is SO frustrating. ;o)
