When a father and son go out to eat together for a heart-to-heart conversation they will talk while standing in the take-out line as well as in the car going and coming.

Unless of course they are discussing Old Testament history and other scholarly pursuits! Then no one can get a word in edgewise for hours!! At least at our house.....
