"The Savvy New Yorker" by Chris T., New York It was a rainy evening in New York City, so it was hard to get a cab. I got one to go across town to a restaurant and as I was getting out of the cab an elegantly dressed lady was trying to get into this same hard to find cab. I said to this stranger, "Aren't I nice, I came all the way here to bring you this cab?" This savvy New Yorker answered without skipping a beat, "Yeah, and you're late!!"
