Q: Ever feel people are in your life for a reason? A: I dated a salt lick once.

The mood on Friday's in the agency is much quieter. John handles a few ad/headline requests and it's time for lunch he thinks.

David and John meet in the lobby, and almost instantly, the elevador comes.

David

'Well, they got rid of the guy in DC.'

John

'...work with him a lot?'

David

"Few times a month,'

John

'See, I'm not defending anyone or saying I don't care how someone acts. I just don't  feel in control of...much. And I think you can grow by being around people who aren't so...nice. I think people are in our lives for a reason. Did you ever feel like that?

David

'This girl and I used to meet at Rio. Half the restaurant is Mexican and half is Texan. So we'd go there and eat salty chips and salted margaritas-and we'd kiss....salty kisses. So basically, I dated a salt lick.'

John

'Well, there you go.'

David

'No, here I go.'

The elevador doors open and they walk out.

David

'O.K. spill it. I basically believe if you are a woman and God tells you not to look and you do...you are turned into a pillar of salt...which you know I find attractive in a woman...and you?'

John

'I'm Catholic in this life. But I our souls are born again to gain the insight into....universal....goodness...so when we die we are closer to the ultimate good....God. I mean if you aren't close to God in life...how can you be close to him in death?'

David

'I'm like'n my pillar of salt more and more. Wanna do McDonalds?'
