Summary

Today’s expression and dialog: to bail on somebody Is Jim helping you with your English? He bailed on me. What happened? As soon as we started, his girlfriend called. Did you ever make a promise to help someone, but at the last minute CANCEL? It happens. We're human! Can you remember a time when YOUR friend canceled on you? I can. My friend Eric promised he would pick me up at 7 on Friday night and take me to a local football game. I was excited. I didn't know the local players and he was going to be able to tell me who was good and who was bad. I was REALLY excited. He arrived at my house at about 6pm. And then...his girlfriend called. "Do you want to go watch a movie with me? I'm bored. I miss you. I want to be with you~" Ugh~ He believed her! He went to her! He left me! All alone. No football. Nothing... Yeah, he BAILED ON me!!
