Standing in line, waiting for coffee at the Intellegensia across the street from my office, my mind on the million and one things that needed to get done ten minutes ago.
Woman behind me: Excuse me, sir. Did you drop some money out of your back pocket?
Me: Uh, no?
Woman behind me: Oh. Because this was on the floor behind you. (Holding cash in hand.)
Me: Uh, wait a minute. (Fishes in pockets.) Oh, yeah, I guess I did. Thanks!
Woman behind me: Well, it was her, actually. (Points at woman walking by with a cup of coffee.)
Me: Oh. Well....
I wanted to buy her a cup of coffee to say thanks. She looks over and smiles as she walks by.
Me: Thanks! Your honesty will go unrewarded....
Woman behind me: That's the funniest thing I've heard all day.
