The One Where
I talk to
the tall guy
(Part 2 of 2)

Would you like to read more of my interview
with the tall guy?
You would?
OK!

Me: Ok, I'm back, let's continue. I noticed you put up a tree in the room I'm not allowed to go into. What's that all about?
TG: It's a Christmas tree. You put it up and then you decorate it and then you put presents all around it. The more presents you get means the more that people love you!
Me: Uh, I don't see any presents for me under the tree.
TG: Exactly!
Me: Ha-ha. You're a riot. I thought you were supposed to decorate the tree, and put lights and balls on it.
TG: Well, it's a NEUTERED tree.
Me: That's not EVEN funny.
TG: Actually, you and I are going to decorate it this week. I just have to get all the ornaments down from the attic.
Me: And then you'll put all my presents under the tree?
TG: ALL? Maybe 1.
Me: Just 1? Well I hope it's a 27" iMac quad-core i7 with 8GB of memory and a 2TB hard drive!
TG: I was thinking more like a carrot.
Me: I think that's spelled 'CARAT' and it had better be at least 5 of them in a platinum setting!
TG: You've been watching too many jewelry store commercials! But I do know that Santa is bringing you something really cool!
Me: Property? Stocks? A new car*?
TG: You'll find out soon enough.
Me: How soon is soon enough?
TG: A couple of weeks.
Me: How long is that?
TG: Hmmm, that's like 28 meals.
Me: Can I have them all now?
TG: Uh......no. I think this interview has gotten off track.
Me: (thinking.... 28 meals divided by 2 meals a day is A LOT OF DAYS!)
Huh? Oh, the interview, yes. Well, that's all we have time for today. Tune in next time for...
TG: There's not going to be a next time. You DO watch too much tv.
Me: I'm not the one with only 4% of recording space left on his DVR.
TG: Are we done?
Me: Can I have a cookie if we're done?
TG: Sure.
Me: We're done!

(*Note from the tall guy: Jack is a better guesser than he knows! But YOU'LL have to wait until Christmas to find out what I mean!)
