Just think Jake when your writing for the Post or Times you'll look back and think "Wow I once slung icecream for Friendlys, now I'm writing 1500 words about a dog show." Congrat's on the job I'm sure You'll end up with the Redskin's beat.

We are getting off thread - sorry Jake.
Mine is " . . . do these balloons blow up into funny shapes? " . . . "they do if round is funny."

Yes sorry Jake, I will give you a little extra on the tip the next time I visit your fine eating establishment.

JF, dishwashers and 'cooks' don't get tips unfortunately.
Warmother, let's just pray I never have to write about dog shows as much as I love dogs.
FSF, thanks and I always got the Fribble when I was just a customer. Hopefully I'll get them for free.

Man, a kid can dream can't he?

Wow, things have really changed in Southern MD. When I was a dishwasher in high school in Calvert County, we got 1% of the tips, which in turn allowed them to pay us 2.00 an hour, well under the minimum wage.......

I didn't know dishwashers ever received tips. I know waiters and waitresses do. They get paid 2 something an hour and make most of their money on tips.

Yeah, I was being a little facetious. It was basically a way for the restaurant owners to rake me over the coals....
