You Got That Right!

Every day on Granville Street in Windsor, this fellow opens up shop with an umbrella in the back of his Ranger and a tailgate full of fresh cabbage, tomatoes and melons. Actual commerce between customers takes a back seat to marathon trash talking sessions with his buddies.  The fellow on the right stops by most every day for a match of verbal volleyball with the veggie man. He always posts up on the same side of the pickup to lean under the shade. Once his elbow hits the gun rail,  the bull commences. Like in any good 'ol "you know what" session, these fellows include an intermittent "You got that right!" to show concurrence on the given opinion and to signal the current speaker to continue laying it on.
