Lightbulb Page #3

---

It can be tough, long hours,

no guaranteed paycheck.

But you have a chance to win.

Bye, girl.

Bye, sweetie.

Bye, see ya'-

So I go out there and the gate

agent ask me for volunteers,

you know, to give

up their seats.

Sounded like a game show host.

"A voucher for a

room at the Marriott,

and we'll get you out

on the 7 A.M. non-stop.

Anybody?"

So these two guys sitting

there yell, "Throw her in",

'pointing at me,

"We'll do it."

Ahh, smart guys.

So what's new here?

Nothing, really.

Just the same old, same old,

looking after cash flow,

you know.

You guys haven't

been by the casino,

trying to help it, have you?

No.

I, ur,... I told you

I wouldn't, didn't I?

Just asking,

Matt, just asking.

Well, I am

just telling you.

Good.

Oh, I can't wait to get

out of this uniform

and take a shower

And I can't

wait for that either.

Oh, guess what

the big rumor is at work.

Southwest buying

you out, that one?

They're going to be

offering an early retirement.

Retirement?

For you?

You're too young and

sexy to be retired.

With a cash incentive,

twenty-some thousand.

Twenty thousand?

Of course, I can't even

think about it until your

business does something,

we pay down our cards.

I don't think you'll

be waiting too much longer.

It's like Thomas Edison

said, "To have a great idea,

you've got to have

a lot of them."

Yeah, but while we're

waiting on that light bulb,

we're getting in

deeper and deeper.

Come on.

Every bad idea I have just

gets us closer, and closer,

and closer to a really,

really, really good idea.

Oh, I've got a

really good idea.

I've been

up since six, baby.

I've been up about

a minute and a half.

So I said,

"Care for a calzone, sir?"

And he, real

uppity-like goes, "Miss,

you don't know what

you're serving.

I'm Italian.

It's pronounced calzon-e.

You emphasize the 'e'.

If you're going to serve it,

learn how to pronounce it."

I just moved the

cart on up the aisle.

Yeah, sister...

Exactly.

Then my friend Rita, who's on

the other side of the cart,

leans back and says,

"Hey, Gina,

would that be

a**hole or asshol-e?"

You're not real into it.

Another round?

I'd be really good

after a few of these.

So, I think it's great you

guys have been friends

since high school.

I don't even

know that guy.

I could tell

you some stories.

Please don't say

anything, come on, man.

Gina, you know, she still

thinks I'm a nice guy.

No, I don't

I knew you were an a**hole

the minute I met you.

I don't have

to pretend anything.

No, you don't, baby.

No pretending.

I'm really glad

we're all together.

So anyways, thank

you, d*ckhead.

Sure, buddy.

G, you know that Cinda's

going to be coming with us
