My friend and I were singing our favorite song "You're So Vain" and when the line "You're where you should be all the time, and when you're not you're with someone like the wife of a close friend, wife of a close friend and" or something like that. My friend turned to me and my other friend and said, "See this is the part I don't get. What's a ploseman?" So then we contemplated and thought it must be postman. So we would always sing "wife of a postman, wife of a postman and..." until my friend's mom said it was close friend.LOL!
