in other news does my friend listen to a word I say. I tossed in these details you would have to be half deaf to miss. And he did. Mostly whatever concerned him he hears. I too am having listening problems. A man told me "They pay 60 bucks a day" I blurted out 'thats good' he goes "No, it's not" making me look like a retard who has no concept of money. Hey, 60 bucks a day, i'll go buy myself a few drinks ay. I often have to ask the same question in succession; "did you know that today is my birthday" Oh, I didn't hear you singing happy birthday the first time and the whole block was invited. And I ate a whole cake and the candles almost burned the whole house down. No, I don't remember the fire department showing up or the cable guy coming in and saying "escuse me". No, I wasn't listening; I didn't notice the house burnt to a crisp.
