I should have been with you two...then he REALLY would have heard us ten feet away. And you know Gidgit and I have our inability to meet a stranger in common now!
At least you didn't say penis...or did you?

looking up every bible text mentioned on their Blackberries

Were they planning a refutation later in the evening, or were they just so unfamiliar with the references that they had to look them up?

#1 - I can't believe you guys read that entire entry! Gluttons for punishment!

#2 - I did not say "penis," Meg. :) However, considering that the only other thing going on in our train car was the teenaged couple exploring each other's tonsils, I thought it was a little obnoxious of that guy to act like we were playing craps in a museum or something. Gidget and I decided later that he was just weirdly annoyed that his wife was enjoying a conversation he wasn't a part of.

#3 - No, Jonathan They were just being Extra Godly. Like the converted who carry their bibles with them and read as they walk down the street, wait at the bus stop, stand in line at the grocery store, etc. They wanted to read along with the preacher, I guess. Don't know why--she was perfectly articulate.
