So I was talking to a bloke down the pub...

Aint Eazy Being Cheezy

And he said that his father had been a stockbroker on Wall street. During the crash in the 60's his father had lost everything, leaving himself broke. He ended his life by jumping from the 30th floor of the skyscraper where he worked.

This other guy who'd overheard said that his dad also lost his livelihood during the crash. His dad had been a hotdog vendor, also on Wall street, and one day a poor unfortunate came falling from the sky, landed on the hotdog cart and smashed it to smithereens, leaving his dad unable to work.

I left them to continue their conversation.

I talked to a lad in the pub and he said he invented the question mark.

I met him - he was a right head case slasher.

Surely the entrails would have made adequate hotdog meat by way of compensation?

Funny that, I was talking to a bloke who told me who he worked in a pub and the biggest joker in town was in one day and was telling this stranger that he had invented the question mark and that the fella believed him. He fooled another lad into believing he invented the tracker mortgage but couldn't explain what one was.
