Thanks pal

I had a long conversation with the guy at the liquor store today;

"How ya doin' pal."
"Good, how're you"
"Great! Is that it?"
"Yeah"
"Nine twenty. Outta Ten? Eighty cents your change. Thanks pal."
"Thank you."
"Have a nice night pal."
"You too."

I don't know, it's not gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) but...I think we could have a man crush here.

PS
I would like to thank my two friends for their kind comments and advice regarding whiskey in response to an earlier somewhat pathos laden post. I do intend t follow up on your very good recommendations at some point in the very near future. The whiskey part I mean.
