A Short Play About One Taxi Driver's Theory About Why I'm Not Married

[Scene: Red Top taxicab in Northern Virginia. There's a story on the radio about the return of Tiger Woods to golf. The taxi driver maintains that Tiger made a "mistake." CC maintains that having sex with multiple, dirty women is not a mistake and that Tiger should have stayed single if he wanted to screw all the cocktail waitresses on the PGA tour.]

Taxi driver: You're not a forgiving person.

CC: I am a forgiving person.

Taxi driver: But you wouldn't forgive Tiger's one mistake.

CC: I would forgive shrinking my clothes in the dryer. THAT's a mistake. What Tiger did is not "one mistake."

Taxi driver: Are you married?

CC: No.

Taxi driver: That's why.

CC: I'm ok with that.
