There’s a guy who stands near the building I work in, selling copies of The Big Issue. Just about every morning, as I slog down to get myself a cup of coffee, he stops me and tells me his ‘line’ for the day. This is the line he’s carefully crafted to be part of his daily pitch for selling the magazine. I’m ashamed to admit, I never understand them, but he always laughs his head off while he’s telling me, and I figure that’s pretty cool. This morning’s line was something like, “Okay, right, right, okay. What I’m saying today is, right, ‘Ladies, the hottest new web site in town is double-u double-u double-u free-rental-properties-dot-com slash i’ll-have-a-go slash do-you-want-a-single-or-a-double?’” And then he laughed his head off. I have no idea what it means, but I figure it must be pretty cool. (Murray @ Midnight | Comments)

    Okay, that was just as surreal as anything the guy has said to me on my way to coffee. Are you sure you’re not moonlighting selling magazines in the city?
