Only in B'More

My newfound friend Merci had dinner with even newer found friends last night.  She saw a man looking for a dog on the street.  She drove the man around in her car to look for the dog.  They did not find the dog.  But the man and his wife invited her over for dinner.  A couple of days later, other people found the dog and returned it.  These are all things that will never happen in B'town.

On Friday, I was walking along with Advisor Who, discussing the meeting we'd just had, when we bumped into Anders.  The three of us then stopped in the lobby to discuss.  It was a little bit of a Who's On First scenario.  For the purposes of this story, it's also worth pointing out that we're all Asian.  

Who: (to me) About our meeting at 2pm.  Are we meeting at 2pm?

Moi: I don't have a meeting with you.

Anders: We're meeting at 2pm.

Who: Oh right.

Moi: Did you just get your Asians confused?  That's quite racist.

Who: It's OK.  It's all in the family.

Anders: So I'll see you at 2pm?

Who: No, I'm going to be late.  I double booked.
