[BITList] Brian

[FS]

A man walked out to the street and caught a taxi just going by. He got 
into the taxi, and the cabbie said, "Perfect timing. You're just like 
"Brian!

Passenger: "Who?"

Cabbie: "Brian Sullivan. He's a guy who did everything right all the 
time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happen like 
that to Brian Sullivan, every single time."

Passenger: "There are always a few clouds over everybody."

Cabbie: "Not Brian Sullivan. He was a terrific athlete. He could have 
won the Grand Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like 
an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have 
heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy."

Passenger: "Sounds like he was something really special."

Cabbie: "There's more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered 
everybody's birthday.. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and 
which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I 
change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Brian Sullivan, he 
could do everything right."

Passenger: "Wow. Some guy then."

Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid 
traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But 
Brian, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman 
and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was 
in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly 
polished too. He was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one 
could ever measure up to Brian Sullivan."

Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"

Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met Brian. He died. I'm married to his 
fu***n' widow."
