Another electric lunch in central Virginia

Restaurant I was in today had the radio tuned to WWWV Classic Rock. Some highlights:

—This is Sherry with the Electric Lunch on 3WV, and who am I talking to?
—This is Dwayne.
—Hey, Dwayne. What are you doing today?
—I'm just at work.
—Sounds good. So what do you do?
—Eh, it's kind of hard to explain. I work at this shirt place, and I stand at the bottom of this thing and wait for them to drop the shirts down, and then I stack them, like, whether they're extra-large or large or whatever.
—Oh, OK, I get it. So it's like a chute!
—Yeah, kind of.
—Cool. So what do you want to hear for lunch today, Dwayne?
—Could you play some Nirvana?
—Absolutely.
(Cue "Smells Like Teen Spirit")


—This is Sherry with the Electric Lunch on 3WV, and who am I talking to?
—Eric.
—Hey, Eric. What can I do for you today?
—Hey. I was wondering if you could play a little Ted Nugent.
—I think I can do that. What's going on out there, Eric?
—Oh. Well, we're just trying to get rid of this groundhog that's living under this guy's garage.
—Wow! So, when you get the groundhog what are you going to do with him?
—We're gonna get rid of him.
—I know, but what does that mean exactly?
—We're going to dispatch him.
—So, Eric, does "dispatch him" mean that you're going to knock his head in?
—Pretty much, yeah.
—I'm kind of sorry I asked.
(Cue "Free For All")
