That's cool b0b. You guys could be the house band at the imaginary and futuristically super successful restaurant chain "Gravy World" , which features a variety deep-fried meats and mashed, french-fried, hash brown potatoes, with a gravy bar featuring 20 different kinds of gravy. Gravy for the deserts. Gravy cocktails.

...and playing tonight at Happy Gravy Hour, "Laughing Gravy".

Look for my "Gravy World" Investor Kickstarter campaign. b0b you may want to get it in on it.

I trust that the name is in honour of the Laurel & Hardy film of the same name, b0b?

Laughing Gravy was a dog that L&H are trying hide from their landlord. The dog is discovered and is put out in the snow! "Poor Laughing Gravy..." says Stan.

Laughing gravy is also prohibition era slang for booze, of course.

Stan: "Poor little Laughing Gravy" (does his trademark cry then Ollie does his trademark double take after hearing the dog's name.)
