Overheard on Hilton Head

I've gotten a kick out of a site Morgan discovered called Overheard in New York. It's a blog where people contribute the weird things they hear while wandering around the city.

Which lead me to think, what would Overheard on Hilton Head be like? Today I offer my first entry. Debz and I were sitting in the Cold Stone Creamery on the island when an older guy comes in and asks for directions. The Cold Stone chicks (which, I might add, would be a great band name) fill him in. He thanks them and as he's walking out, he says, "I'd buy something here, but I have diabetes. It would cause me to die."
