Morris walks out into the street and manages to get a taxi
just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says,
"Perfect timing. You're just like Dave."
"Who?"
"Dave Aronson. There's a guy who did everything right.
Like my coming along when you needed a cab. It would have
happened like that to Dave."
"There are always a few clouds over everybody," says
Morris.
"Not Dave. He was a terrific athlete. He could have gone
on the pro tour in tennis. He could golf with the pros.
He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway
star."
"He was something, huh?"
"He had a memory like a trap. Could remember everybody's
birthday. He knew all about wine and which fork to eat with.
He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and
I black out the whole neighborhood."
"No wonder you remember him."
"Well, I never actually met Dave."
"Then how do you know so much about him?" asks Morris.
"Because I married his widow."
