CHEAP SEATSWe had a double date with a friend of herswho wrote romantic novels for a living.And sheasked me who my favorite writer is, and I said I didn't have one.We had a disagreement on where we should eatand the guy she was with recommended "Le Saucier."My girl asked how much it would cost, and he said 200 bucks.I suggested we go to the nearest Beef Steak Charlie's, because at the time, they had a special all-you-can-eat for 7 bucks.With that his girl said,"Where did you ever meet a guy like him?"And she said, "You write like shit.”As it turned out we insisted on paying the tip, which of course wiped us out.PASSING GRADELast weekTom Zubicki invited me to play tennis.Neither one of us knows how to play properly.Our longest ralliesconsist of four times over the net, not both ways.Half our passing shots end up atop of HARRY'S AUTO PARTSwhich is directly across the streetfrom the courts. But we figure if we dress properand move somewhat in a way as if we know whatwe are doing, who is any wiser?Next week we're enrolling in an avant garde pottery class.—  Matthew Boylan Bayonne NJ132
