A man walks into an ice cream specialty shop and tells the clerk he wants an ice cream automobile that looks exactly like a 1955 Rolls Royce. The clerk says OK, it'll be ready by Tuesday. Tuesday rolls around, and the man comes back. But when he is presented with the ice cream sculpture, he objects, "But this isn't the right kind of bumper. The original Rolls Royce had a thicker bumper than this." The clerk tells him it will be several more hours work to get the bumper right, and the man says price is no object. [Begin endless loop about man coming back and finding some picky error in the sculpture, and the clerk promising to put more hours work into it to make it right. The man comes back the next day and finds something else wrong, and so on and on it goes.] Finally, the man looks at the sculpture and says, "That's perfect! In every detail! How much do I owe you?" The clerk replies, "$900." The man reaches into his wallet and pulls out 9 crisp new $100 bills. "Thank you," says the clerk," and where would you like that delivered?" "Oh, don't bother," says the man. "I'll eat it right here." ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Kirby ( ...!ihnp4!akgub!cylixd!dave)
