So, I’m at the bar last night, with my wife, my brother-in-law and a couple of friends. We’re sitting at a big old wooden table, drinking and chatting, as we do, and this odd looking bloke comes up to my wife, gives her a thumbs up gesture and says “Jeremiah Says It’s All Right!”
My wife stares at him for a second and responds with a “what?”
He looks puzzled for a second and asks “are you Tia?”
“Yes,” she answers.
I’m watching closely at this point, in case I have to make this guy go away.
“Jeremiah says it’s all right!” He repeats.
“I don’t know what you want,” she answers.
“Is that your coat?” He points and asks.
“Yes, but I’m not going anywhere.”
“Jeremiah says it’s all right!” He says once again, and wanders off.
Must be something in the water….
After further consideration, it appears as though this fellow was reffering to my ID. He had asked to see it earlier whilst I was trying to get a refill on my drink at the bar. Jeremiah is the manager/owner’s husband, they both know me (the owner and her husband, that is).
The mystery is this: why did this guy want to see my ID in the first place?
What a nutter!
I don’t understand this ID thing.
D’y'all go ID flashing as a normal part of life?
Could this have anything to do with the fact Tia doesn’t look over 21 (old enough to drink ‘hard liquor’)?
Could be, she’ll be 37 this year, but she still gets carded for smokes sometimes, so…….
