as the bossman ordered some sort of chinese shrimp dumpling pork thing, the waitress chirped up with, “they’re served with chopsticks. it’s a lot of fun.”

“unless of course, you’re chinese,” artguy said, “because then it’s just business as usual.”

that’s when the entire table burst into laughter.

“you should have asked her if those appetizers come with a money back guarantee!” i shouted.
“what if i only have a good time but not really fun?” shawn asked.

eventually the dumpling type foodstuffs came and the waitress placed them on the table in front of john, he leaned over pointing to the little paper umbrella shoved into some of the dumpling stuffs and said, “look, that’s fun.”
