In heaven, the lovers are French, the cops are British, the food is Italian, the cars are German, and the whole thing is run by the Swiss.

Well, at 30 I can attest that spindles were used pretty extensively in the restaurants I worked at for holding voided food orders. (Yes, I do realise you were being sarcastic.)

Of course, by that time things had long ceased being simple and were far from foolproof...
