The wanderer is having lunch with a woman friend, an attorney in 
Fort Lauderdale.  A highly animated drunk at the next table insists on 
talking to her throughout the meal.     At one point, the friend asks the 
drunk to quiet down.  But he says:      "Why?  I'm talking about love in a 
way that a sober person never does.  I'm happy, I'm trying to communicate 
with strangers.  What's wrong with that?"       "This isn't the 
appropriate time," she said.    "You mean there are only certain times 
that are appropriate for showing one's happiness?"      With that, the 
drunk is invited to share her table.
