Kicking aside a pile of rat droppings, we sat down at an oil-cloth covered table. The blonde apparently didn't notice the footprints on its red & white checked surface.

Judging by the splayed nature of the footprints, I guessed that a Rhode Island Red had run amok in Wilma's place. Hopefully, it didn't wind up as part of the broccoli and rhubarb fritatta that was advertised as the daily "special."

Nope, that Rhode Island Red turned out to be our waitress, errr, waitperson, errrr wait-fowl. It hopped onto our table and fixed me with its beady little black eye -- kinda reminding me of my last ex-wife!

"wait-fowl" - that made me chuckle.

While the dame ordered what seemed like one of everything on the menu, I fell back to my old standard; "One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer."
Bertha, according to her name tag, gave me the strangest look.

I understood the look when Bertha returned with 3 tall glasses of carrot juice, pointing to the beverage list of the menu! To my horror, I read: Carrot juice only!

Clucking to herself, Bertha retired to the corner of the room and squatted whilst we ate and drank.
I sipped at one of the carrot juices whilst I stared at a stain on the opposite wall.

The stain bore a strange resemblance to an ape's head, almost as if it were a constant reminder of previous customers. And perhaps their displeasure at having been served carrot juice by a cranky old hen.

Oh Gawd I thought, as a past memory suddenly flickered into my mind at the association.

"Ahem," the Dame interrupted my chain of remembrance, "to The Business." [Her emphasis on the captilization, not mine]

"I believe you had a question to ask me" she purred. "Well, go ahead, I'm listening!"

"Okay Doll," I said - ignoring PC and getting straight to the point - "what?!"

She purred and licked her lips as though removing cream, then reached down and lifted a handbag too small for anything larger than a bazooka.

"This is 'what'" she purred. And pulled a vuvuzela out of that bag and began to play "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes."

Resisting a sudden urge to shove my zucchini in her vuvuzela to shut her up, I instead sat quietly and listened to her play.
Bertha, on the other hand, stormed over to our table with her panties in quite a bunch!

I held my breath as Bertha poured two glasses of carrot juice into the offending vuvuzela, silencing the blonde's serenade. Maybe I'd be getting those chicken nuggets after all today!

I suddenly began looking at Bertha in a whole new light. After a few moments, I came back to my senses; I wasn't quite that desperate...yet.
