A man walks out to the street, and catches a taxi just going by…
He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, “Wow, perfect timing, You’re just like Dave.”
The passenger asks, “Who?”
The cabbie explains, “Dave Smith, he’s a guy who did everything right all the time… “
“Like when I came along, just when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Dave Smith every single time.”
The passenger remarked, “There are always a few dark clouds over everybody.”
“Not Dave Smith,” the cabbie replied, “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.”
The passenger said, “Sounds like he was really something special.”
The cabbie replied, “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… “
“Dave Smith could do everything right.”
The passenger was amazed, “Wow, what a guy!”
The cabbie continued, “He always knew the quickest way to go, to avoid traffic jams… “
“Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them.”
“But Dave, 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 Dave Smith.”
The passenger asked, “So, how did you meet him?”
To which the cabbie answered, “Oh, I never actually met Dave… “
“he died and I married his wife.”
