He asked me something (maybe your last name, I'm not sure), so I was confused, and he was confused just from the randomness of it all, I think. . . anyway, after a little while of confusion, I explained what was going on. He didn't seem nearly as impressed as I was. :)

You see, I thought that was what he said, but there was a guy who used to go to school here whose first name was Sumner, and I thought that was who he was talking about last night. Then I realized that didn't make any sense, and I figured I'd heard him wrong. Guess I didn't!

> Geez... like that wasn't confusing enough *without* having two guys with the same name involved. This could make an interesting premise for a farce... I'll have to think about it...

If you turn it into a farce, don't forget to have someone cross dressing. :) (have you ever seen Complete Works of Wm. Shakespeare Abriged? hilarious show. . .)

Yeah, I figured you'd be pretty broken up over it. :)
