overheard at Beaterville

Two white-haired gentlemen, sitting at an outdoor table, eating eggs. One man jovially declares, "She came into our lives and everything turned upside-down! Nothing has been the same! She asked me, 'Aren't you worried that we're putting all of our eggs in one basket?' I said, 'Sure we are. But it's a good basket. And it has a cover.'" The other man nodded, smiling.
