    "Is anyone sitting here?"
    I looked up and gazed into the eyes of the most beautiful girl in
the world. "Uh, no," I said, and gestured to the chair.
    She laid her book on the table and sat down, smiling.
    "Ah!" I said, catching sight of her book. "Marxism for Dummies!"
    "Have you read it?" she asked.
    "No, but I'm a big fan of the 'For Dummies' series."
    "I see," she smiled. "So what are you reading?"
    "Oh, uh," I coughed, "nothing really." I glanced at page 72, then
looked her right in the eye and said, "So do you come here often..." I
glanced at page 73, and continued, "Baby?"
