Lunch Time

Written By Bob Cairns

We had a young intern at NC State who was thrilled when we took him along on a video shoot to Chicago. As we were making our way down Michigan Avenue one of the crew asked where we wanted to eat. He followed up by asking Jamie, the intern if he might have a preference.

Jamie paused for a second to give it a thought and then said, “Well, right now I’m thinking of  Dicks!”

Ignoring the fact we all knew that Dick’s Last Resort was a restaurant known for obnoxious waiters and waitresses who abused the clientele, one of our crew said, “Let’s give Jamie a minute to get over thinking about dicks and then decide where we want to eat.”
