Sorry, Please Play Again | Thursday, 2005 November 17 - 7:28 pm |
Tonight's moment of silliness, brought to you by Night Ranger. Tonight I was making dinner reservations for me and Amy, so we can celebrate our three month anniversary. Girl: "Thank you for calling The Food Hole*... can I help you?" Me: "Yes, I'd like to make dinner reservations for tomorrow night." Girl: "All right, can you hold please?" Me: "Okay." (Click. One second blast of Muzak. Click.") Girl: "Sorry to keep you waiting." Me: "Um, that's okay." (Boy, apologizing for a one second wait? That's polite.) Girl: "Is this <unintelligible>?" Me: "Excuse me?" Girl: "Is this Sister Christian?" Me: "You mean, the Night Ranger song? I couldn't really tell from that one second snippet, but I'll guess 'no'." Girl: "I said, IS THIS MISTER HARMON?" Me: "Oh, ah, no." Girl: "Um, please hold." So here I thought the restaurant was playing some kind of "Name That Tune" game, when in fact, she just hadn't clicked the call-waiting thing long enough. Darn, I was hoping to win a prize. As for "Mister Harmon", I don't even know how that song goes. *The restaurant is not actually called The Food Hole, but Monocerdo recently mentioned one of my favorite Simpsons terms, "car hole", and I had to work in a reference. |

Ha! I love both the fact that your first thought was Sister Christian AND that you actually knew who sang it. That would have made my day, had I been The Food Hole phone answering woman. |

For some reason. That reason was because it was a riot! |
