David Sullivan

[The one 8,533]

A man walked out into the street and caught a taxi just going by. He got into the

 

taxi, and the cabbie said, "Perfect timing. You're just like David !!"

 

Passenger: "Who ?"

 

Cabbie: "David Sullivan. He's a guy who did everything right all the time. A bit

 

like my coming along when you needed a cab. Things happened like that to David

 

Sullivan, every single time."

 

Passenger: "There are always a few clouds over everybody."

 

Cabbie: "Not David Sullivan. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the

 

Grand Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pro's. He sang

 

like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star...... and you should have

 

heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy."

 

Passenger: "Sounds like he was something really special."

 

Cabbie: "There's more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody's

 

birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and even which fork to

 

eat them with.

 

He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks

 

out, but David Sullivan, he could do everything right."

 

Passenger: "Wow. Some guy then."

 

Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic

 

jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But

 

David, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make

 

her feel good. He would never answer her back even if

 

she was in the wrong ...... and his clothing was always immaculate

 

- shoes highly-polished too. He was the perfect man !! He never made a mistake. No

 

one could ever measure up to David Sullivan !!"

 

Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him ?"

 

Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met David. He died. I'm married to his f****ing widow !!"
