The definition of an optimist is an Accordion player with a beeper.
"Zydeco version". Now that's funny. As is the beeper gag.
Tip of the hat for helping my deficient operatic knowledge along. My niece, following upon numerous excuses (Damn, Megan! What a lousy coincidence. That's the same night I promised to bring the pressure washer over to grandma's to clean her false teeth. Damn.
