    STEVE: This place serves good breakfasts, don't you think?
    HOWARD: Yes. But I'm not used to eating American-style breakfast.
    STEVE: What are you planning to do today?
    HOWARD: I saw yesterday that they rent windsurfers at the beach. I want to rent one.
    STEVE: Have you done windsurfing before?
    HOWARD: No, but it looks fun. I always wanted to try it.
    STEVE: Can you take a little advice from a friend?
    HOWARD: Sure. What?
    STEVE: Don't waste your money. Windsurfing is very hard. And it will be windy today.
    They will charge you fifty dollars for a half-hour, and you won't be able to windsurf.
    You will fall and fall and fall.
    HOWARD: But I always wanted to try it.
    STEVE: Yes, but it takes a long time to learn.
    You would spend a thousand dollars to learn it on a rental windsurfer.
    HOWARD: Well, I will see. How was your day at the office?
    STEVE: Hectic. It's always hectic. But how was your windsurfing?
    HOWARD: I tried it for a half-hour.
    It was interesting, but... well... I couldn't really do it.
    STEVE: See? I told you. It's very hard.
    HOWARD: I couldn't even stand on it and hold the sail. I probably fell down fifty times.
    STEVE: Fifty times?
    HOWARD: Yes, it was really stupid.
    STEVE: And how much did it cost to rent it?
    HOWARD: It was fifty dollars for a half-hour.
    STEVE: Well, that's not too bad then.
    HOWARD: What do you mean? It's expensive!
    STEVE: Yes, but you have to calculate a little.
    You paid fifty dollars and you fell down fifty times.
    So you only spent one dollar per fall. That's cheap.
