Free Readers Ensemble  -  2 Across

Sunday, March 13, 2:30 pm

2 strangers, a man and a woman, board a San Francisco train.   They're alone in the car. Both are doing the New York Times crossword. She's an organized, sensible, psychologist. He's a free spirited, unemployed ad exec.  She is a crossword pro. He always quits. When he tosses his puzzle away, she snaps, "Crosswords are a metaphor for life, those who finish, succeed, those who don't, fail." She happens to be lovely, so he decides to finish instead.
