　　Thanks to a young waiter，I recently found a friend of 20 years was once a yo­yo virtuoso(大师)．

　　“Oh，stop it！” Jackie said when I started laughing during our dinner.“I was，too.And I knew how to ‘Walk the Dog.’”

　　“Wow，really？” said our waiter，Jumario Simmons，flashing a big smile at us.

　　“Don’t encourage her，” I said.

　　“What else could you do？” he asked.

　　“I did ‘Round the World，’” Jackie said，now ignoring me completely.“That was cradle(婴儿时期的)thing，too.”

　　I’d asked Jumario what he did when he wasn’t waiting on tables.The 24­year­old waiter was so smart that I knew there had to be more to his story.It turns out that he won a regional yo­yo competition last year.He also gives free lessons to kids.“It gives them something to do，” Jumario said.“Keeps them off the streets.”

　　One of the great things about eating out is the table talk with strangers，which reminds us that everyone has a life and a name.But the other day I heard that some restaurants are ending this talk between diners and servers.I listened to the reporter describe how their improvements are allowing customers to text orders from their tables to speed up service.
