ME: Benny, have you been studying for your written driving test?
BEN: Uh no.
ME: the California test is really hard. A bunch of us at the business times were taking it around the same time and people kept failing it. They were dropping like flies!
BEN: OK
ME: you’ll have to watch that “Taxi” episode where Jim goes to the DMV.
RON: Slooooow dooown
ME: exactly
RON: between your horror stories and “Taxi” he won’t be able to take the test.
ME: he’s fine. After 18 years with me, his nerves are hammered steel.
BEN: yes
