Whilst I was traveling across the country (That's where I've been the past
few days, if anywon (1) was wondering.), I stopped at a restaurant
(Spelling? thanks). I was seated at my table with the rest of our party,
patiently waiting to be served. I ordered, and began drawing on my placemat
like I always do, and while waiting for my food (a cobb salad, chicken
fingers, french fries, and a side of mash potatoes with extra gravy) to
arrive I noticed a sign advertising their delicious, fresh pies. (Yumm!)
And then, this is the good part, I got an idea! What's the best part of any
meal, at a restaurant? I'll tell you. Pie! Who doesn't like to finish off
every meal with a hot, scrummie slice of homade pie?! Whipped cream? Yes,
please. Well, here's where my idea comes in. Every table should be
equipped with a "Pie light". A pie light is a device that alerts the
server, wherever she may be, that you would like to order pie. Cause you
can never git a hold of her when you want pie. They assume you're done
after you've ordered, eaten, and received a refill on your drink. This
always gits my goat. I still want to order pie. So just press your "Pie
Light" button, and then the pie light comes on, and the server is alerted
somehow, like with a beeper (maybe even shocked). She looks which table has
their "Pie light" on, and comes to git them their pie. Is this a good idea
or what? I like nuts. I would like to press the "pie light" and receive my
pie right away. Some people may prefer to have the server come to the table
to ask you what kind of pie you want. Not me, I want pie and I want it now.
Bring me whatever you want! I am not particular when it comes to pie. Come
on, is anywon? Maybe there should be TWO different pie lights. Won to tell
her, "Come here, I would like to order some pie", and another light that
just says, "PIE NOW. ANY PIE." I love pie! Maybe won light is enough.
(You tell me.) It could blink or something if you want it "a la mode". Or
a different colour light could come on if you are allergic to nuts. I think
a siren should go off after you've ordered the Won hundredth pie, and you
git it free. We can come up with several ideas. We'll work on it. Pie
light! Its my idea, and I think this is good! Who's with me???? I even
eat the crusts.

I love you all. I love the world!

Love always and forever and ever,
Wavy G.

The light idea is good, but I think it should be just a general "bring your
ass over here" light.

Best "Wavy G" post EVER.

No no no. It's obvious that Wavy has the "big picture" here, and you don't.

See, if the lights were to bring the waitress over for any reason, people
would overuse them ("Waitress, I need a napkin!" "Waitress, this food is too
hot!" "Waitress, what's the special?" "Waitress, does this include tax?"),
and they would lose their sense of urgency. Furthermore, during the night
and graveyard shifts at all-night restaurants, the "C'mere Lights" (as they
would almost certainly come to be called) would be abused for laffs by
drunks, teenagers, blue-collar knockabouts, and other undesirables. Lights
would be flashing all the time, and waitresses would come to ignore them.

When, OTOH, you limit the use of the lights to pie orders *only*, they
remain special. For they will only go off a maximum of wonce (1ce) per
table session, at the end of the meal--and sometimes not even that often,
for not every group of diners orders pie.

It's a splendid idea, and I am almost in tears thinking of how it will be
when Wavy's dream is realized. Pie lights. Pie lights! I like it!

Sincerely,
Russell B

Yeah, Russell B is right. Thanks, Russell B. I knew you of all people
would understand and appreciate my idea, "Pie Light", and not just secretly
mock me while faking sentiment. You are a good friend, dude. Do you want
to go git some beers some time? RUSSELL B IS GOOD FOLKS!!!!!!!! Although I
find won (1) flaw in your addition, which is the idea that the "Pie light"
should only be used wonce per session. I had planned on setting off my "Pie
light" several times during my meal, I want to enjoy several pies. Is this
considered abuse? I don't want to be the won responsible for abusing my own
creation, (my "offspring", if you will). If so, I will try to order all my
pies at wonce (1ce), or begin limiting my consumption (YEAH RIGHT. LOL!) I
don't know though. We'll work something out. Peace and love to all the
world, and all of mankind. PIE LIGHT!

Wavy G.

1. Crack kills. So do more crack, please!
2. You are a wanker.
3. The very thought of you having offspring of any kind is terrifying.

Huh? Wait a minute. I am confused. You're not angry? You're not going to
"plonk" me? You're not the least bit irritated or offended because this has
nothing to do with "X-Files", or crocheting, or whatever the topic of
discussion is in your newsgroup? You actually *liked* something I, the
"Wavy G", have to say??? I...I don't really know how to take this. Gosh, I
just don't get it. How do you come back to something like this? No
training I have received can prepare me for a response like this. For the
first time in my short, meaningless life, I can truly say...I am speechless.

Somewon do me a favour, and turn on the local news to see if there is a call

More like, bring your big, fat, pie-stuffed ass over here?

Now? Gwavy was hopeless before conception.

Doubtful. Notice the blatant LACK of crossposting.
