A man walked out to the street and caught a taxi just going by. He got into the taxi, and the Cabbie said, 'Perfect timing. You're just like Brian'.
Passenger: 'Who?'
Cabbie: 'Brian. He's a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab. Things like that happen to Brian every single time.'
Passenger: 'There are always a few clouds over everybody.'
Cabbie: 'Not Brian. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy.
Passenger: 'Sounds like he was someone really special.'
Cabbie: 'There's more. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Brian, he could do everything right.'
Passenger: 'Wow. Some guy then.'
Cabbie: 'He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Brian, he never make a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too. He was the perfect man! He never make a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Brian ...'

Passenger: 'An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?'
Cabbie: 'Well, I never actually met Brian. He died ... I'm married to his damned loud-mouthed widow!'
