Overheard at Booth 5: Coming Out

Fernando: I don't know, man.




Billy: Look, you're gonna have to tell your parents about us at some point.




Fernando: I was gonna wait until my birthday.




Billy: That's in January!  I was hoping we could spend Christmas together.




Fernando: I'll be 18 then and they wouldn't be able to say anything.




Billy: Well they're gonna say something no matter what age you are, especially considering I'm 40.




Fernando: [silent]




Billy: That's what's bugging you, isn't it?   It's OK. You can tell me.  I get it.  The age difference.




Fernando: Billy, they don't even know I'm GAY.  Then, to also tell them I'm in love with someone almost my dad's age.




Billy: I think your dad'll understand.   I mean, he and I have got a lot in common.  We both voted for
Obama ... TWICE!!
