Richard Sherman: Isn't the Kaufman place air conditioned? The Girl: Gee, no! It's just terrible up there. That's why I bought the electric fan. Ohh, this feels just elegant! I'm just not made for the heat. This is my first summer in New York and it's practically killing me. You know what I tried yesterday? I tried to sleep in the bathtub. Just lying there up to my neck in cold water. Richard Sherman: That sounds like a good idea. The Girl: But there was something wrong with the faucet. It kept dripping. It was keeping me awake. So you know what I did? I pushed my big toe up the faucet. Richard Sherman: I guess that's what they call American know-how. The Girl: The only thing was, my toe got stuck and I couldn't get it back out again. Richard Sherman: You couldn't? The Girl: No, but thank goodness there was a phone in the bathroom, so I was able to call the plumber. Richard Sherman: You called the plumber? The Girl: Oh, sure. He was very nice, even though it was Sunday, I explained the situation to him and he rushed right over. Richard Sherman: Did everything come out all right? The Girl: Oh, sure! But it was sort of embarrassing. Richard Sherman: Yeah, I can see how it might have been. The Girl: Honestly, I almost died. There I was with a perfectly strange plumber and no polish on my toenails.
