Overheard

Actual conversation of two people who don't know each other, killing time at the airport.
(Scene: Richmond and Syracuse flights are flying out of the same gate at Dulles.)

Man 1: You flying to Richmond or Syracuse?
Man 2: Syracuse, NY.
Man 1: I use to live in New York. I should know where that is. Is it in the south part of the city?
Man 2: It is in the north part of the state.
Man 1: **confused look**
Man 2: Way up north...near Lake Ontario.
Man 1: **Less confused, but still clearly clueless**
Man 2: Up near Canada.
Man 1: Ohhhh....so it isn't very close to the city?

Correct!!!
