Happy Birthday, Alan Shore!

I see I've achieved meme status.

Thank you, Jon.

[jon_r_meyers]

A meme? Nah, I just wanted to congratulate you!

[alan_shore]

But of course. What'd you get me?

[jon_r_meyers]

A watch!

[alan_shore]

You did not. Did you?

Where has it been?

[jon_r_meyers]

I did!

*hands it over; it's a white Versace watch*

What do you mean - where has it been?

[alan_shore]

*raises an eyebrow and inspects it approvingly*

Oh, nothing. I was just recalling a remark you once made about my letter opener.

Again, thank you. I suppose this means I'll have to figure out when your birthday is.

[jon_r_meyers]

Why... why would I put a watch where I'd put your letter opener?

And that shouldn't be too hard. Finding out the birthday of a celebrity, I mean.

[alan_shore]

Why would you put a letter opener where you'd put my letter opener? Please don't answer that.

Has Ireland designated it a national holiday yet?

[jon_r_meyers]

Because it's fun.

And no, not yet. Still working on that. Want to help me start a petition? You're a lawyer petitions is your kind of thing, no?

[alan_shore]

That's what I like about you, Jon--you have this charming way of proving my point for me.

I'm a good lawyer. If you'd like the name of someone either desperate, out of work, or both, I can provide you with a list of ADAs I've gone up against. In court.

[jon_r_meyers]

Proving your point... in what?

Nah, I think I can do it without a lawyer.

Your shaky grasp of the nature and function of various objects. Or perhaps the nature and function of various parts of the body. I'm not entirely sure.

July 27th. So little time to shop for letter openers.
