Jeff: "Welcome back, Ladies and Gentlemen. This is Jeff Castbroad on KQWY-99.1-FM and we've got more news about the peculiar weather situation here in otherwise sunny Las Vegas."
Eddie: "Yes, the weather situation is getting worse and worse. The temperature is dropping rapidly, resulting in strong and gusty winds in the entire Clark County area, and thick layer of clouds has been developing, seemingly out of nowhere."
Jeff: "And there's more to it than that ... when I took a walk outside just a few minutes ago, the air had a strange feel to it, some kind of tension, almost like electricity. I can't quite define it, but it is rather creepy. So what do the meteorologists say? What is causing this unusual condition, and how is it going to develop?"
Eddie: "Well, the NOAA has finally acknowledged the situation, but at this point they do not have an explanation for it either. They still insist it doesn't show up on their satellite images. From the observations experts have been able to make from the ground, it looks like we're facing a thunderstorm of a magnitude never before experienced in this area."
Jeff: "You heard it, Ladies and Gentlemen, looks like it's better to stay inside tonight. Until we've got further news for you, we're going to continue on our mission to rock the strip ... with a true rock legend. Here come AC/DC with 'Thunderstruck'."

Bartender: "Oh, you mean like the one over there?"
Monty turns around and sees Mika
Monty: "Oh yes! Exactly like the one over there, to be precise!"

Mika (irritated): "Uhm ... I'm sorry ... What did you just say again?"
Monty (sighs): "Never mind ... Can I invite you for a drink?"
Mika: "Uh ... yeah. Whatever."
Monty sighs again and goes back to Bartender
Monty: "Hello again ... I'd like to order a drink."
Bartender: "Oh yeah? Well, we have got lots of drinks. Long drinks, short drinks, soft drinks, hard drinks, some have more booze, some have less booze, so could you be a tad more specific?"
Monty: "Do you see the lady over there? I tried to get her attention, but she's completely ignoring me. So I'd like to buy her a drink. What would you recommend?"
Bartender: "Ah-ha! I Understand! If you want the lady's attention, I would recommend our cocktail 'a la maison'! It has never failed to get anyone's attention. It is a bit pricey, but it's absolutely foolproof!"
Monty: "Well, if it works ... what is it called?"
Bartender: "'Bananas-Melonas-Ananas'."
Monty calls back to Mika
Monty (shouting): "Mika? Would you be fine with a 'Bananas-Melonas-Ananas'?"
Mika (absent-minded): "Ehh what? Yeah ... sure, go ahead!"
Monty sighs and turns around
Monty: "Okay then ... Make me two 'Bananas-Melonas-Ananas', please."
