['Say , Jim , how about going for a few beers after dinner ? '
' You know that is tempting but is really not good for our fitness . '
' What do you mean ? It will help us to relax . '
" Do you really think so ? I don't . It will just make us fat and act silly . Remember last time ? "
" I guess you are right.But what shall we do ? I don't feel like sitting at home . "
' I suggest a walk over to the gym where we can play singsong and meet some of our friends . '
" That's a good idea . I hear Mary and Sally often go there to play pingpong.Perhaps we can make a foursome with them . "
' Sounds great to me ! If they are willing , we could ask them to go dancing with us.That is excellent exercise and fun , too . '
" Good.Let ' s go now . " ' All right . ']

['Hey Lydia , what are you reading ? '
' I β m looking at my horoscope for this month ! My outlook is very positive . It says that I should take a vacation to someplace exotic , and that I will have a passionate summer fling ! '
' What are you talking about ? Let me see that ... What are horoscopes ? '
' It β s a prediction of your month , based on your zodiac sign . You have a different sign for the month and date you were born in . I was born on April 15th , so I β m an Aries . When were you born ? '
' January 5th . '
' Let β s see . . . you β re a Capricorn . It says that you will be feeling stress at work , but you could see new , exciting developments in your love life . Looks like we β ll both have interesting summers ! '
" That β s bogus . I don't feel any stress at work , and my love life is practically nonexistent . This zodiac stuff is all a bunch of nonsense . "
' No , it β s not , your astrology sign can tell you a lot about your personality . See ? It says that an Aries is energetic and loves to socialize . '
' Well , you certainly match those criteria , but they β re so broad they could apply to anyone . What does it say about me ? '
' A Capricorn is serious-minded and practical . She likes to do things in conventional ways . That sounds just like you ! ']

["Hi , Becky , what's up ? "
' Not much , except that my mother-in-law is driving me up the wall . '
" What's the problem ? "
" She loves to nit-pick and criticizes everything that I do . I can never do anything right when she's around . "
' For example ? '
" Well , last week I invited her over to dinner . My husband and I had no problem with the food , but if you listened to her , then it would seem like I fed her old meat and rotten vegetables . There's just nothing can please her . "
" No , I can't see that happening . I know you're a good cook and nothing like that would ever happen . "
" It's not just that . She also criticizes how we raise the kids . "
" My mother-in-law used to do the same thing to us . If it wasn't disciplining them enough , then we were disciplining them too much . She also complained about the food we fed them , the schools we sent them too , and everything else under the sun . "
' You said she used to ? How did you stop her ? '
" We basically sat her down and told her how we felt about her constant criticizing , and how we welcomed her advice but hoped she'd let us do our things . She understood , and now everything is a lot more peaceful . "
" That sounds like a good idea . I'll have to try that . "]

" I wanted to . But he said , no , the box is still in its plastic wrap from the store.If it's opened , other people won't believe it's new . "
' So he had the boxes wrapped in plastic . '
' Yes , it was the kind of perfect plastic wrap that comes with new products.Look , it even had a bar-code price sticker on it ! It looked brand new . '
' But why would a guy be selling new video cameras for twenty dollars ? '
' He said he had to get rid of them . They were stolen . '
' Aha ! Now I understand.You were trying to buy stolen goods on the sidewalk.So , what I think is , you deserve to get cheated ! '
" C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it.We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box . "
" That's no problem.He just has a friend who works in a shop that can do plastic wrap . That's easy.And probably it's the same shop he got the boxes from.Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there.Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around.So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you.Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks . "
