post #9

an elderly man came up to the reference desk to fill in voter registration.

“hold on,” he says, “gotta call the wife.  she’s got all my ID cards.”

he flips his phone open, puts it on speakerphone.

voice recognition: “please say the name of the person you would like to contact.”

he holds it close to his mouth, clearing his throat, and with an unmistakable tone, he says:

“The Governor.”
