Smithfield & Forbes, Downtown:
Man #1: I have to stop at Kaufmann’s to get something.
Man #2: It’s Macy’s now.
Man #1: So what are they calling the clock? “Macy’s Clock”?
Man #2: I don’t think they’ve decided yet.
Man #1: Maybe they’ll call it Macy’s Kaufmann’s Clock.
Man #2: No, too much of a mouthful.
Man #1: This from a man who is going to be working for Bank of New York Mellon.
Man #2: Well, that’s better than what someone called it at a staff meeting: “BONE ME”.
Man #1: Huh? Uh…Bank Of NEw york…MEllon. OK, I get it.
Man #2: I just hope that’s not how I feel six months from now.
