OK, now I know who, but I don't know the other story. I like the popcorn story though. I'd never get my popcorn bowl magically refilled for me if I spilled it; no one ever makes it but me. Ha!

That way I can figure out what the story may entail, so I can make up a related post. In any case, I guess the Spectrum's owners' motto is the same as Paul's (from Citizen's and Paul Simon): Keep the customer satisfied. Who did you see that movie with?

Tue, 22 Aug 2006 01:25:03 +0000 http://www.currentdirt.com/2006/08/19/thank-you-spectrum/#comment-269 When I went to see _Truth or Dare_ at the Spectrum, I spilled my delicious corn all over the floor before the previews even ended (or started...)! I am a popcorn lover, so this was very sad. I went out to get more. I went to a different popcorn seller to avoid embarrassment. But the original seller saw me and said, "Did you spill your popcorn?" I sadly shook my head, and the worker took pity on my misfortune and I walked away with a free top-up on my spilled corn. True story. I have another funny story from that evening so long ago, but I will save it in case a more related post comes up.

And it's true, even if I'm not so hungry, and I think I'll save some for the next day, there's never any left over. Ugh, now I <i>really</i> want some popcorn. I make the best popcorn.

Every now and then someone comes up a little short. I give them a pass, they walk away smiling, and so do I. Never been to the Spectrum, guess I'll have to try out their popcorn. Ya ever notice about popcorn, it is so yummy, you can't stop eating it.. Just that I own my own business, so it strikes a cord. Every now and then someone comes up a little short.

I think just the popcorn is enough to keep Liz going back; they make good 'corn. Wow, Paul, you sure thought that one through.

They make a boat load of profit margin on the popcorn, so taking a little less wasn't going to kill them. And Liz, you have good memories about that little act of kindness - you'll keep going back to the Spectrum just because of that popcorn boy even after he goes back to school.
