The crowded cafeteria sported a large sign reading: “Watch Your Hat And Overcoat.” Meyer did. He kept turning every minute, almost choking over his food.
His pal, Moshe, kept on eating, without thought of his own coat on the hook. Finally Moshe said, “You, dope…stop watching our overcoats. You are spending so much time watching that you are not enjoying the food.”
“I’m only doing half as much as you think. I’m only watching mine,” replied Meyer. “Yours has been gone for over half an hour.”
