"It's great to be young and a Yankee.": Jerry Gallo

I felt like Marisa Tomei in "My Cousin Vinny," when she's meeting Vinny outside the courthouse:

Lisa: What name did you tell him?

Vinny: Jerry Gallo.

Lisa: Jerry Gallo! The big attorney.

Vinny: Yeah.

Lisa: Think that was a smart move?

Vinny: Yeah, well, the man's a seriously accomplished lawyer. If he checks up on this guy, his name will come up all over the place.

Lisa: His name was in the papers all last week.

Vinny: Yeah, I saw that.

Lisa: But you didn't actually read the articles.

Vinny: No

Lisa: Too bad.

Vinny: Why's that?

Lisa: 'Cause he's dead.

It was a LITTLE like that today when circa 4:00 I have the following conversation:

Boston: And btw, the Bruins are gonna kick the Rangers' ass tonight.

Me: Oh yeah I forget you're a big Bruins fan now. Must be psyched about the game.

Boston: Um YEAH.

Me: Really.

Boston: Ugh. Why, what is it.

Me: Cause the's game been over for an hour.

I may be reading this 8 months late, but that is awesome.
