"The way a Economist talks"

1. ( Neighbor) Your food always tastes better.
2. ( Daughter)I would love to drive you around in your car.
3. ( Son) Using your lawn mower and gas is so much fun.
4. ( Neighbor) Would you mind picking up a few things for me?
5. ( Meeting ay your house) You do make good coffee.
6. (At the Laundromat), I only have a few things to wash, can I put them in with yours?
7. ( Sister) I am having company and my house is so small!
8. ( Daughter)Would you mind paying the taxi, I don’t have any change.
9. ( Husband) I don’t want to pay that much.
10. ( Neighbor’s Kids) That pizza looks so good!
11. ( Neighbor) Can I ride along?
12. ( Son shopping for you ) Here is your bill $13.98, my tip is extra. One and a half hours at @ $ 12.50 = $ 19.75+ 13.95 + tip of $ 5.00 comes to $ 38.70. I forgot the cost of gas, Oops, “sorry” I forgot, I used your car……
for dinner. 13. ( The plumber) What ever that is, it sure smells good, thank you, I would love to stay
14. ( The Neighbor )Where are you going ? I could come along and carry your luggage.
15. ( your friend ) Thank you, I don’t need a room by myself, I’ll bunk with you and John.
16. ( Your friend ) I forgot my check book and I think I lost my bill fold! I’ll write you a check when we get home.
17. ( Your guest ) It’s too bad that we can’t go to China, since we are so close!
18. ( In China ) I never understood anything that those people said!
19. ( Your friend ) I don’t like to fly, why don’t we take a ship back?
20. ( Your Neighbor & friend ) There it is, “ the good old U. S. A. “

( Guess who ) Do you think we should stop at the grocery store before going home?

Thanks for taking me along, Let’s do it again sometime.
