Drink up

A guy got on the bus this morning carrying a thermos or self-sealing mug with a label saying “Xtreme Gulp.”

I have no idea how much liquid it could hold. But I would guess it’s a lot.

This fellow, who also had a separate container for what might have been his lunch, looked as if he might be on his way to a job in the building trades.

Maybe he plans to sip from his “Xtreme Gulp” and make it last all day. Still, it was impossible to resist imagining an exchange perhaps often repeated at his job site.

“Where’s Bob?”

“Taking a leak.”

“Again?”

“Well, you know, he’s got the Xtreme Gulp.”
