I am working on producing a local event here in town. Dealing with a lot of restaurants. Got a call today from a very sweet gentleman with a very heavy accent. Trying to figure out what he was saying required a lot more brain activity than I could devote.

He kept asking me a question. I had to ask him to repeat it about 10 times. (not exaggerating) I kept telling him that I couldn't understand him. He kept saying he had bad reception (uh, no, that wasn't  the problem!)

I thought I had finally deciphered what he was asking - if he could serve omlettes.
I said "Sure, you can serve whatever food items you want, including omlettes."

Long pause followed.... (imagine crickets chirping)

He replied - I was asking about electical OUTLETS.
Opps!
