Once upon a time not so long ago, in a land not so far away...

Myself, Shemp, TenLetters and StuartD had decided to skip out on the Player's Ball to check out the Krispy Kreme alternative. We journeyed to the upstairs food court at the Venetian at around midnight on that fateful evening. Upon finding only four other people in the food court, we decided that we had missed the party and so decided to begin our very own.

We chose a suitable table and Shemp whipped out a 20$ with which to acquire the appropriate party supplies. TenLetters and I, as it turned out, had never tasted the wonder that is Krispy Kreme before, so we were quite excited to rid ourselves of our donut virginity. After waiting in line at the counter for a few minutes, it was our turn to order our sugary nuggets of heaven.

Even though it appeared to be our turn (we were standing squarely under the "Order Here" sign), the Krispy Kreme employee was busily filling countless boxes of dozens of donuts straight of the conveyor belt. Oh yes, he saw us. He didn't smile, but I suppose you could say he nodded. After filling about 6 boxes, he finally turned his full attention to us. TenLetters suggested, "We could just take one of these boxes." But no! The loyal employee stopped his hand and replied, "No! These are for them!" He waved his gloved hand at the food court behind us.

Them? We both looked around the foodcourt. Other than the two men at our own table, only five people were present, and they were leaving. But we gamely shrugged our shoulders and waited for him to assemble a box of donuts specially for us.

We enjoyed our box of donuts, but we never did figure out who "Them" was who ordered a gross of Krispy Kreme original glazed donuts.

Are you the mysterious "Them"?

The them are hiding at
Them

Come join em. Them is your kinda people.
