Old black dude: Man,what size shoe do you wear?

Daddio: (bored, waiting for a bus, bites) Ten and a half. 

Old black dude: I got a shoe for you. 

Daddio: Really.

Old black dude: I got a fine Converse sneaker for you. This is a BEUATIFUL shoe. Too big for me, so I can't wear it. But I wish I could. I think it would fit you.

Daddio: You want me to buy your shoes?

Old black dude: They're Converse. Size twelve and a half. (Produces a veritable clown shoe from his jacket).

Daddio: (laughing) I wear ten and a half.

Old black dude: See? This could be your shoe. This could BE your shoe. You got big feet.

Daddio: (looking at the canoe in his hands) Not that big.

Old black dude: You got fat feet. What you wear? D?

Daddio: Yeah, D. 

Old black dude: See I knew it. Isn't that a fine shoe? It's a double D.

Daddio: It looks like it. 

Old black dude: Great color.

Daddio: Sky blue is nice.

Old black dude: (Looking up and down Chicago Avenue when Daddio doesn't make an offer) I gotta bless someone with this shoe.
