Katie:  I rode to lunch with Roger and Andy.

Sam:  Does Roger own a helicopter?

Katie:  I don’t think so.

Sam:  Ask him if he owns a helicopter.

Katie: Okay, I will ask him at the next rehearsal, but why?

Sam:  Well, all people that own helicopter’s are named Roger.

Katie:  Oh I get it.  When people are saying Roger on the radio they mean they understand what you are saying.

Sam:  That just makes no sense what-so-ever.

Katie:  When you are talking on a radio, sometimes it is hard to know if they understood you. If they say Roger then you know they did.

Sam:  That is just a stupid word to say they should just say, “I understand you.”
