Overheard #1: Sandwiches

Snow-Sandwich(Crow and Companion driving around small California town before wedding.)

Companion (reading sign): What’s a grinder?

Crow: You know, it’s like a hoagie. Or a speedie. Or, like, a hero.

Companion: Like a sub?

Crow: Yeah!

Companion: So you mean a sandwich. Why don’t you just say sandwich? You silly Americans. So many names for “sandwich.” It’s like Eskimos with “snow.”
