A True One

I was sitting in a pub in Dublin on a business trip. I was having lunch with my boss a formidable, if slightly dizzy, woman.

On the plane over I had been reading the paper about Wayne Rooney having just been signed by Manchester United for approximately a gazillion pounds.

The conversation went thus:

Boss: You know Wayne Rooney?

Me: Yes?

Boss: Well I know he is a footballer, but is he a singer as well?

Me: Er, what?

Boss: Well the headline on your newspaper was - 'Rooney Signs Record Deal'

Me: Yes he's a talented rapper, actually.
