You concerned about going to Idaho

A bit, but not too much.

                           A bit.

Ya goin to church

I’ll go, you know, see how the other ninetythree percent live.

Yare not concerned about your daughter-in-law introducing you to churchwomen  Now that your divorcedseems to me she alluded to something of the kind when you last visited

If I’m invited I’ll go.

Why would ya go if yare invited  Ya don believe

Never can tell.

Wha

What do you mean?

Never can tell

               If fewer and fewer people are attending church then those who are are true believers  Youd still entertain meeting a churchwoman

I would; I think I would.   Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Nothing in common

Likely there'd be other things in common.

Yare missing my premise 

                          Ya have nothing in common  How would you engage a woman on her religiosity

I wouldn’t. 

           You’re assuming their religion is their . . 

. . Abiding North Star

You’re assuming there’s nothing more to them.

No  Religion is a dealbreaker

Dealbreaker? You think so?

Yah 

     If theyre in church in sparklingwhite Idaho it is an animating force  They believe  Yadon

I wouldn’t address it.

How could ya not  Itd be a dishonest waste of time

Not really.

Not really  Wha planet ya livin on  Play it out  Avoiding it how would ya know theyre interested 

You know.

I don

Of course you do, the look in their eyes, their body language, how they look at yo . .

. . Your Honor she didnt say . but the look in her eyes . her body language . . how she looked at me said it all  It was consensual  I did not force myself on her sexually                                                                                                                              Weak man 

Christ! How did you get me before a judge?

Because yare lying to yourself  Youd be lying to her

How did I lie?

You don believe in God  

                       A churchwoman in Idaho does 

Idaho don mean  I da ho 

Alright, smart ass, how would you handle it?

I wouldnt go to churchwouldnt look for a woman there

But if you did?

I wouldnt

Play the game. 

                What if you did?

Id be straightforward

Straightforward. 

                  What’s straightforward in your book?

Awrightawright  Takin into account I would not accept an invitation to go  if I met a woman who caught my attention innarested me

                Id say . . gotta pen . ya might wanna write this down

Please. Something tells me I don’t want to write it down, probably much less remember it.

So whos not playin the game now

                                    he pushed a clipboard of paper pen over to his side of the café table on the coffeeshop patio 

      All set  Its memorable

 

Yada yadayada.

Id say 

         If you get on your knees for Jesus  will ya get on yer knees for me

Jesus Christ!

Exactly 

        Immediately knocked off two of the threeonly politics dangling  Although  Idaho  Id say I neatly succinctly qualified all three 

You wouldn’t say that.

Ya know I would 

                   But not going to church because I do not believe virtually eliminates any possibility
