So, two old school pals, Jim and Robert, make contact with each other on facebook. They arrange to meet up for a wee festive drink in the Horseshoe bar.
They have a nice long talk trying to fill in the gap of those years by telling each other about their lives.
Finally, Jim invites Robert to visit him in his new apartment for Boxing Day dinner.
“I’ve got a wife and two kids and I’d love to have you visit us.”
“Great, replies Robert, where do you live?”
Jim hands Robert a card and says,
“Here’s the address. And there’s plenty of parking behind the apartment.”
“Park and come around to the front door, kick it open with your foot, go to the elevator and press the button with your left elbow, then enter!”
“When you reach the sixth floor, go down the hall until you see my name on the door, press the doorbell with your right elbow and I’ll let you in.”
Robert replies, “Great, got that. Tell me, though…what is all this business of kicking the front door open, then pressing elevator buttons with my right, then my left elbow?”
Jim stares at him and says,
“Surely, you’re not coming empty-handed?”
