`` How do you do it?'' 
 
 `` Huh?,'' said Jack, `` What do you mean?'' 
 
 Jack and his friend, Ben, were in the Brooks Café, enjoying a light lunch. Jack was finishing up an entry into Webster's latest, and could n't bring himself to admit he had zoned into his work and had completely missed Ben's last statement. 
 
 `` You always have this positive outlook on life,'' Ben stated with a grin. `` You're never phased by anything. I tell you how I see Larry hitting on your wife in the middle of the market, and you do n't even blink twice.'' He laughed. `` I'd be jealous. Guess that's just my flaw though. Anyway, I'm going to take off. Work, you know.'' 
 
 Ben dropped a twenty on the table, footing more than his share of the bill. Jack thanked him, bid him good-bye, and he took off. 
 
 Since Ben was gone, Jack dropped his fake smile. He sighed. `` Welp, time to finish this entry up,'' he thought.
