SMILE, AND THE WORLD THINKS YOU’RE A FOOL; CRY, AND YOU DON’T CRY ALONE; THE WORLD GATHERS AROUND AND LAUGHS AT YOU Kindly read, dear readers and fellow-Apes

An electric meter-man, who was new on the job, went to a house to check the electric meter, but he couldn't locate it; so he walked up to the door and rang the door-bell. A boy opened the door and this conversation took place:

NB: TMM = the meter-man / TB = the boy

TMM: Are your parents at home?

TB: Dey was in, but now dey is out.

TMM: What do you mean 'dey was in, but now dey is out?' Where is your grammar?

TB: She's in de kitchen, cooking a cake.

TMM: Do you go to school, boy?

TB: No, I don', 'cause my Dad went to a school for years, but he's still a bus driver. He's been driving the school bus for as long as I can remember. I got no time for dat.

TMM: Where’s the meter, do you know?

TB: Meater? We ain’t got no meater in dis house!

TMM: Will you please tell your grandmother I would like to talk to her?

TB: Who be you?

TMM: I'm the meter-man.

The boy goes into the house and yells: Hey, Granma! The meat man is here! Are we having meat for lunch today?

TMM: JEEZ! AND BY GOD! What a moron!
