Dining Out

Dining Out

So, we were out at a restaurant. It was their grand opening, and they had some events scheduled. One of the events was a local radio station was broadcasting from there. 


The station decided to do a little contest and asked for any kids there at the restaurant to come on up. "Bonnie" ran up to the station table. With a little encouragement, "Clyde" was convinced to join his sister. There were 2 other kids in the restaurant at the time that also joined in.


Well, since it was a BBQ place, the station DJ decided to have the kids make animal sounds and the kid with the best one would win a prize. The animal chosen was a pig. Each child was told that when it was their turn, they were to make a sound like a pig into the microphone.


AND, we're LIVE on the air! First up, one of the other kids, he makes a pig-like snorting sound into the microphone. "Bonnie" goes second. Filled with trepidation, we held our breath to see what she'd do. Into the microphone she makes a snorting pig sound. WHEW! Up third is one of the other kids, and he simply does, "oink."


OK, now you understand, "Clyde" has his animal sounds down. He KNOWS them. The DJ holds the mic out to "Clyde", says, "Make a pig sound, C!" And, in his trademark deadpan deep voice, "Clyde" very clearly says,





"MOOOO."





Wait. What?!?
