Last night as I headed to the cash register at Gelson’s, a middle-aged blond woman was in a tirade at the check-out stand.
“She’s the Devil,” she rasped to a thin fey man next to her in line.
I stopped and asked her dead-pan,
“Are you kibitzing about Sarah Palin?”
“Yes,” she shouted gleefully in response.
“See, you didn’t even have to reveal her name and I knew who you were talking about.”
All the shoppers within earshot roared!
