Cheap-o business associate to co-worker: "Hell, you've bought lunch the last four or five times. Let's flip for this one."

At a fancy French restaurant in Columbia Maryland, I thought I'd be cool and order the "Poulet a la Ferrari." Turns out that was only an ordinary chicken that had been run over by a fancy car.

A plump gentleman ate a fine meal at an expensive restaurant and topped it off with some rare Napoleon brandy, then he summoned the headwaiter.

"Do you recall," he asked pleasantly, "how a year ago, I ate just such a repast here and then, because I couldn't pay for it, you had me thrown into the gutter like a veritable bum ?"

"I'm very sorry sir." began the contrite headwaiter.

"Oh, it's quite all right." said the guest, "but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again."

One matron to another in a Columbia tea room: "The service here is terrible, but you don't mind waiting, because the food is so poor."

Mrs. JimJr and I tried a fancy new restaurant at the Inner Harbor in Baltimore Maryland. As we were waiting to be seated, she asked the Maitre d'hotel if their waitresses had everything on.

The owner of the Hunan L'Rose in Columbia, which sez it has the best in Szechuan & Hunan Cuisine, happened to answer the phone.

The called asked: "How much is the average dinner ?"

"Sir," replied Susie, "if you have to ask, believe me, you cannot afford it."
