Just thinking

You know those odd conversations, or random exchanges which happen between two people who know each other very well? I’m thinking of Tony Hancock and Sid James or many other domestic comedies where a pair of characters ramble on about very little?  Well here is a verbatim example which happened the other day:

Are you alright?
Thinking.
Thinking?
Yes, thinking.
Are you thinking about anything in particular? Or just thinking?
I’m thinking about something in particular.
What are you thinking about?
A saw.
A saw?
As in sawing something, or saw as in feeling sore?
A sawing saw.
Why?
I just am.
Any old saw, or a particular saw?
A particular saw.
Why?
I just am.

At which point, one of us found something else to do.
