Joey BishopOne time we were having dinner and some guy came by and took a potato off of Frank Sinatra's plate. And Frank said, โHey pal, are you hungry?โ The guy says, โyeah.โ Frank said, โSit down.โ And he gave him his dinner. I thought for sure there was gonna be trouble from the guys surrounding Frank, but Frank says, โJeez, relax, the man's hungry.โ
