On calling ahead...

Submitted by AlexG on February 15, 2008 - 12:20.

When I was growing up, we had a family friend who dropped in on one friend or relative or another nearly every day. But he had the good habit of - whether or not he called his intended host - ordering a pizza or other food delivered to their house, timed to arrive at the same time as himself. If the host was actually busy, he'd eat in his car and drive off.
