The Blind Date
英语课
After being with her all evening, the man couldn't take another minute with his blind date. Earlier, he had secretly arranged to have a friend call him to the phone so he would have an excuse to leave if something like this happened.
When he returned to the table, he lowered his eyes, put on a grim 1 expression and said, "I have some bad news. My grandfather just died."
"Thank God," his date replied. "If yours hadn't, mine would have had to."
