[A big Bouncer bloke stands by a door, party music and sounds behind the door. And person curiously comes up to talk a look]
Is there a party going on in there?
Bouncer: Yep
Sounds fun. I don’t’ think I’ve been to a party for ages. There’s so much going on in life, you know. I mean who has time to party.
Are there many people at the party?
Bouncer: Yep
I bet, bound to be heaps of people, by the sounds.
Have you got room for any more people?
Bouncer: Yep
Oh really. Nice. Nice.
Say, how does one get into the party? Do you need an invite?
Bouncer: Yep
Oh right. Of course you would. A party like that.
So… is there chance more people could be invited?
Bouncer: Nup
Oh I see, the list has been finalized, of course it has. I would love to be in there. But I guess if it’s invitation only, it’s invitation only. Does sound like a LOT of fun back there.
Say, is there a fee or something that can be paid to let me in?
Bouncer: Nup.
Oh of course, but I mean, can I go get you a drink or something? Shine your shoes? Anything I can do to get you to allow me in without an invite?
Bouncer: Nup
Oh, right. Fair enough. I didn’t think there would be. Doesn’t hurt to ask.
Do you know the list of people invited?
Bouncer: Yep
Oh, of course you do, how else would you know who to let in.
So um, can I get you to check a name for me? I have a friend, Robbie, he loves to party, was he per chance invited?
Bouncer: Yep
Oh right! There you go. Lucky him.
And um what about James? Was he invited at all?
Bouncer: Yep
Oh really, there you go.
Tell me, was Bianca invited?
Bouncer: Yep
Really?? Unbelievable. How did SHE get an invite.
What about Cathy?
Bouncer: Yep
No way. Unbelievable. Of all the people in the world.
Everyone seems to be invited. But am I invited?...
Bouncer: Yep/ Person: No! [same time]
What? Did you say… I’m invited?
Bouncer: Yep
Really??!!
Bouncer: Yep
Wow-wee, there you go! And all this time I thought I wasn’t invited.
Well, guess
I’ll join the party then. Nice chatting.
Before I go, how were the invitations sent, because, I don’t recall seeing an
invitation, It’s possible it went to my spam folder if it were emailed.
Bouncer: [holds out Bible]
Yes I have a Bible, thanks, though not overly inspired to read it.
Bouncer: [stands there still holding out Bible]
Oh. Is the invitation in the Bible?
Bouncer: Yep
That’ll teach me for not reading it, wont it, ha-ha. Guess I’ll have to now, won’t I.
Well thanks for your help
Actually, you know, you’re telling me there’s a lot of people invited. Is there anyone NOT invited?
Bouncer: Nope
Well.. that IS good news.
