Stopwatch
By Paul Ford
I can drink beer quickly.
(20 minutes of conversation between four lonely people, then:)
I said, All right, will any of you three bet me $5 I can drink this in less than 8 seconds?
Let me.... He fumbles with his watch, presses buttons. Yes, I will.
I'm in for that, said another.
Go, said the friend with the watch.
I pound the glass to the table.
3.78 seconds, he says. 32 liquid ounces. Are you sick?
Wallets.
