Hour of Silence
Minneapolis Jim Meehan is a talker, there's no denying that, but his table chatter today has been at an all-time high.
"Today would be the day I forget my earbuds," John "The Razor" Phan groaned at the table.
"Do you want an hour of silence, Jonathan? Meehan asked him.

Silence is golden, at least for the hour at hand.
