Dick: Harry, did I get any phone calls?
Harry: Oh, yes. It rang repeatedly.
Dick: And, um who called?
Harry: Well, I don't know, Dick. I'm not clairvoyant.
Dick: Of course not. But I'm sure you filed my midterms.
Harry: No. But I did pre-lick all your stamps. And I have placed them here on your filing cabinet for your convenience.
Dick: Nice work, Harry. Now, when I want to mail a letter, I'll just steam, scrape, and tape.
