OVERHEARD
Are there tid-bits of conversations you’ve heard while standing in line at the grocery store, serving a table, or walking down the sidewalk that make you smile, cringe or laugh out loud?
“Lincoln was unfortunate looking. Allegedly.”
“It’s hard out there right now for hair follicles.”
“Man, I just can’t wait to get home and watch the Bears.”
“I have to tell you of the reaction I saw of a photograph.”
“Are they identical?”
– Question posed to parent of girl-boy twins
“I’ve never licked a Christmas tree – at least I don’t recall.”
“It tastes like pulverized pine needles mixed with coffee and cream. I think that’s a definite pass.”

Armchair, and office chair, quarterbacks
The sound of teeth biting and scraping against silverware as people eat
“Shallow” by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper
Chapped lips
