I have a favorite new web site:
It’s a blog where people post snippets of conversations they’ve overheard in the vicinity of Minneapolis-St. Paul.
For example, consider this gem posted on Sept. 29:
Elderly Lady #1: Do you still have the sweaty bed?
Elderly Lady #2: Yes!
Or this, which was overheard at the University of Minnesota and posted on Sept. 26:
Girl: All this professor does is talk, talk, talk. I wish she would just shut up. That’s all ALL of my professors do. Talk, talk, talk.
Don’t live in Minneapolis-St. Paul? Maybe there is an overheard blog for your neck of the woods, like New York, D.C., San Fran or Philadelphia. Wander on over to Overheard Minneapolis and check out their “around the world” page.
