Glass
"Hey Matt, what are you up to?"
"Well, I watched a couple of episodes of X-Files on DVD while I ate a salad for dinner, and then picked glass out of my fingers."
"Why'd you do that?"
"It had been a few years since i'd seen any of them, and I really missed the first season stuff."
"No, the glass."
"Oh, because I'd been cleaning up glass in the parking garage."
"What glass was in the parking garage?"
"The remains of the driver side window of my car."
"Someone broke in? What did they steal?"
"Nothing."
"You must be kidding. Was there anything in your car?"
"Oh not much. My snowboard. My snowboard boots. A brand new pair of 150 dollar ski goggles."
"Well, if it was a homeless guy, he may have just been after your spare change."
"There was about six dollars in change still sitting there. And some recyclable bottles for that matter."
"Weird. You sure it was a breakin?"
"Yeah, there's the mark from a crowbar along the edge of the window."
"They tried to pry your window open with a crowbar. . . ."
"Apparently."
