Snappy Comeback

In the 50s, there was a doctor in Fairbanks named Sexour. And my sister-in-law, Janie, was working as a waitress in a popular downtown cafe. One day the cook answered the phone and then called into the dinning room, "Is there a Sexour here?" to which Janie, without thinking, responded, "You know very well, we don't even get a coffee break!"

We have a new lady doctor called Overy: I foresee many such comments as yours.

That's too bad! Everyone should get one of those often!
