A Real Winner
I'm reading The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2005. It's a collection of short stories, essays and such selected by High School Students. One of the short stories features a man in his late 20's who has won Free Burgers for Life. Oddly enough, that's the title of the story as well.In a memorable moment, he confronts the High School senior he was once dating, but who is now ignoring him, and he says this gem of a line:
"You didn't even congratulate me on winning the contest. Free burgers for life. For life. You know what that means? I can take you out anytime you want. you can even get something over the five-dollar value and I'll pay the difference."
