Hackensack

I went out on a date last night with a guy I met YEARS ago in the Adonis Theatre, which used to be a gay porno theatre on 9th Avenue, run by an elderly Greek woman. It's been torn down, which is a shame. The same theatre where many men sowed an oat was originally built for the star Fanny Brice.

Anyway, I'm in a Jersey diner, with a half dozen 40-50 year old Irish waitresses (serving Italian food) who LOVE my date. Since he's a regular, they all stop by to say Hi and catch up. They sit right in the booth with us.

(BTW - Today marks the first day of no smoking in Jersey restaurants!)

They love him because he says something dirty to them and they laugh hysterically.

One gal was looking for something she dropped under the table.

My date looks at her and says "Katherine, what are you looking for under there? Your virginity?"

Without missing a beat, the middle-aged, Jersey-working gal waitress says,

"Oh, that? I lost that years ago! But I still have the box it came in!"

Hackensack - you gotta love it.
