Paging Mary, Paging Charlie



Best conversation of the week. In hindsight, this IS a truly great conversation.

Since none of you, well but one, was part of this conversation, how would you read it? How much of a context does one need to sort of decode this?



I: Ha. What a There's Something About Mary moment! Bizarre!!

Person: I know those vex you but it's better than having a High Fidelity moment, oder?

I: I suppose so. But I wish had more Lawrence of Arabia moments this week, if you catch my drift.

Person: So, how's the avocado on your veggie concoction? And, I caught the drift but I'm out of film references. Are we watching Benjamin Buttons or Milk? You'd go for Milk but it's Saturday and you might actually go for something less cerebral instead.

I: You're definitely having a High Fidelity moment right now. Totally Charlie. No, I don't want to watch Milk. Or Benjamin Buttons. I want to drink Pellegrino water with lemon and watch two episodes of Flight of the Conchords instead.

Person: It's not TV, it's HBO.
