Mitch was raising his fists, and he punched the air a couple of times when the man put his hands up, palms facing Mitch in a ‘hold on there’ position and said, “Hey, I don’t want to fight you, I wanted to buy you a drink.”
“Well, that’s good because I was fixin’ to knock you into next Tuesday, mister.”
“Let’s get that drink,” the man said, and he helped Mitch to the bar.
