Beef Barn joke

[bobquasit]

Teri and I were hungry, so she called in an order to the Beef Barn from the car. We got there a few minutes later, and I went in to pick up our order.

The girl at the counter came over as I walked up.

"Hi, what can I get you?"

"My wife just called in an order. I believe the name is Teri?"

Pause.

"Actually, I'm sure her name is Teri..."

The guy standing next to me cracked up.

A lot of it was the way I said it, of course. Posts like this are why I miss being able to make voice posts so much.

Beef Barn? That sounds almost as scary as "The Hungry Heifer" that Norm on "Cheers" favored. :)

We never took you to the Beef Barn? It's only five minutes from our house. I think you'd like it. Really great roast beef sandwiches, and it's a pretty kooky old building. It has a silo with a lot of strange toys hanging from the ceiling, and another small dining room that's a chicken coop.

If you're ever able to come down and visit us again, we should go there.

I think I've probably been to it; I have some vague memory along that line, unlike Vinnie Testa's which I'm still certain I've never been in. :)

It's no odder, I suppose, than the "Chute Roosters" in Hill City SD which actually is a converted barn.

Why can't you make voice posts anymore?

It just doesn't work since they switched from local numbers to the toll-free one. I can only get a fast busy from my home landline, and a "This number is forbidden" (or something like that) from my cell - even though my calling area is nation-wide.

I've opened tickets for the problem twice, but nothing has been done. It sucks!

Well, I got a laugh out of it.
