THe Purse

As the bus pulled away, I realized I had left my purse under
the seat. Later I called the company and was relieved that
the driver had found my bag.

When I went to pick it up, several off-duty bus drivers surrounded
me. One man handed me my pocketbook, two typewritten pages and a box
containing the contents of my purse.

"We're required to inventory lost wallets and purses," he explained.
"I think you'll find everything there."

As I started to put my belongings back into the pocketbook, the
man continued, "I hope you don't mind if we watch. Even though
we all tried, none of us could fit everything into your purse.
And we'd like to see just HOW you do it."
