By the way Racer, had to tell this tale (thanks to your post):
Originally posted by Racer X 69 Many moons ago, I worked for a concession company in Florida, selling peanuts, cotton candy and snowcones at baseball games, ice hockey games and sometimes concerts.
I would often get asked "Where are you from?" and I would reply: "Guess. If you guess the right country, I'll give your purchase free." No-one ever guessed right.
Usually, they'd guess England, or Australia. Once, I posed the question and the conversation went like this:
Customer: "Ohio."
Me: "No, try another country."
Customer: "California!"
Me: "No, different country, not state."
Customer: "Canada."
Me: "Nope. Try a different continent."
Customer: "Alaska?"
