OVERHEARD: CENTER CITY PHILADELPHIA

Limes: The New Cholesterol?


Two brief conversations overheard last night in a crowded bar in Center City Philadelphia:


Bartender: What’ll you have?


Bar Patron #1: A Bacardi and Coke.


Bartender: Would you like a lime with that?


Bar Patron #1: No, no, the lime hurts my stomach.


No more than twenty minutes later:


Bartender: Can I help you?


Bar Patron #2: I’ll have a rum and Coke.


Bartender: Would you like a lime with that?


Bar Patron #2: Uh . . . uh, no. No . . . I’d better not.


Am I missing something here?
