THE LESSON

I overhear two guys I've never seen before talking in a booth:

--What's on your mind?

--I'm afraid I can't tell you that.

--Come on, man. You can tell me. We're friends, right?

--That's right. We're friends. And I know you well enough to know you like to learn things. Learn something new every day, right?

--Yeah? So?

--So, if I tell you what I'm thinking right now, it'll be the last thing you ever learn...And you'll be sorry that you learned it.
