Jazz game colloquy.

A game of tug-of-war:

Bruiser (with Boy Scout sock between his teeth): [pulling]

The historian, to me: Do you ever play tug-of-war with Bruiser?

Bruiser: [pulling harder]

Me: No. (incredulous)

The historian: He's very strong.

Bruiser: [uses superdog powers of pulling to cause sock-ripping tug-of-war action]

Singing son: Have you ever played chess with Bruiser? He's very astute.

Bruiser: [plots master chess strategy for putting opponent in check mate, using only his teeth]
