A Bammer coworker of mine sent me an IM at work, we were talking a little football smack (very little from my end).  We then have this exchange...


Him: "We have some small live oaks at my Dad's place that he wanted to get rid of, do you need one?"
Me: " I saw a dead bear on the side of the road, do you need another one?"
Him: "No, we seriously have some trees that we are moving."
Me: "Oh.  No, thanks for the offer."

Nah, you handled it just fine.

I saw that as one of several very appropriate responses.
