A man walked out to the street and caught a taxi just going by.<\/p>\n
He got into the taxi, and the cabbie said, \u201cPerfect timing. You\u2019re just like Sean!<\/p>\n
Passenger: \u201cWho?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cabbie: \u201cSean Donovan. He\u2019s a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happen like that to Sean Donovan, every single time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Passenger: \u201cThere are always a few clouds over everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cabbie: \u201cNot Sean Donovan. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Passenger: \u201cSounds like he was something really special.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cabbie: \u201cThere\u2019s more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody\u2019s birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Sean Donovan, he could do everything right.\u201d<\/p>\n
Passenger: \u201cWow. Some guy then.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cabbie: \u201cHe always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Sean Donovan, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too. He was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Sean Donovan.\u201d<\/p>\n
Passenger: \u201cAn amazing fellow. How did you meet him?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cabbie: \u201cWell, I never actually met Sean. He died. I\u2019m married to his damn widow!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
