Life Guard 's Wit





At the swimming hole this morning the lifeguard asked me were we going out to eat tonight or see a movie, then added that there is "nothing good on TV night."  and topped it with a knowing laugh.
We both laughed.  I didn't want to show I had no idea what he was talking about.
Later, out of his ear range, I asked Anna what he was joking about.  She said tonight is the vice-presidential candidates' debate.
Oh.
I get it!  It will be so boring and uninteresting that you will want to dine out or watch a good movie.

Shouldn't I get some kind of credit here?   Not caring enough to not even knowing when it was scheduled should be worth something!  Right?
