Mr. Cogito Gets Waylaid

Mr. Cogito: I got ransacked today.

TXB: How so?

Mr. Cogito: I told some people they could come talk to me after I gave my speech. But they all came at me at once unexpectedly, crowding me, cornering me.

TXB: By the way, you didn't get ransacked. You got waylaid.

Mr. Cogito (choking on a doughnut, laughing): You iz one funny sumbitch.

TXB: Wuzn't a joke.
