Make Your Own Fun... at Denny's

Or was it Carrows? Does it really matter? No. What does matter is that when you grow up in a cultural and opportunital (it's a word now!) wasteland such as Lompoc, CA, the chances of living to adulthood are both enhanced and inhibited by making your own fun.

To this end, our fearless duo Jack and Rob used precious high school class time to make lists. One of these lists, Things To Do in Wal-Mart, showed up several years later as a forward in Jack's hotmail account. Very strange. But today Jack and Rob would like to share with you a few of gems from Things To Do at Carrows (or was it Denny's?):

1. Pay in Monopoly money. When it is not accepted by the cashier, rail against The System.
2. Move all plates, cutlery, etc to the floor for an impromptu picnic.
3. Ask your neighboring table if you can borrow a cup of sugar.
4. Demand to speak with Carrow (or Denny).
5. After dinner, roll out a sleeping bag and ask for a breakfast menu.
6. Save money by eating a meal that consists soley of free candy from the dish by the register and packets of Sweet and Low.
7. While waiting for your "meal," start a craps game in the aisle between booths and tables.
8. Start a sing-a-long (your fellow diners may be slow to jump on this train, persistance and volume are the key).

If we remember more, we will share them.
