Apologizing Quote by Vincent H. O'Neil
““Okay, let's cut the chatter. Open Mike Night's not 'til Tuesday.' Ruby's voice broke in. He must have had a van full of people to do that, as he normally let the comedians in the group rant away at will. Sorry, Rube.' It was Danny, in the blue van. Danny, you weren't even talking just now.' I know.' Then what are you apologizing for?””
