Destination: Dinner

Fare: $13

Cabbie: What’s that?

Me: Tartine.

Cabbie: Protein?

Me: Tartine. A bakery. They’re in a lot of tourist guides.

Cabbie: They’re waiting in that line for a croissant? Oh, Jesus Christ.

Cabbie: I just got back from Iowa.

Me: Oh yeah?

Cabbie: I brought up my daughters there. They bring their kids back every year for the parade. We never miss that chickenshit parade.

Me: Sounds like fun.

Cabbie: Iowa. Sure are a lot of fatasses out there.
