HAPPY TALK: An awful breakfast

One morning in a highly-rated hotel breakfast room, a guest called over the head waiter. "Good morning, sir! I'd like to order two boiled eggs, one of them so undercooked that it is runny and the other so overcooked that it is tough. I also want some rubbery bacon, burnt toast and butter that is so cold it is impossible to spread. Finally, I'll have a pot of extra-weak coffee, served at room temperature." 

The bewildered waiter almost stuttered.

"Sir! We cannot serve such an awful breakfast to you here!

"Why not?" the guest replied. "That's what I got here yesterday!"
