Ernesto: Ah, Peter! You need to sign my petition! Petey: Hi, um, Ernesto. What is it? Ernesto: It nominates me, Ernesto Lacuna, for president of the student council - Petey: Oh, yeah! Okay! Ernesto: Of the high school. Petey: The high school? Ernesto: Yes, I feel that my considerable executive talent would be wasted at the elementary school level. You're not signing. Petey: Oh! Yeah! Okay!
You’re right about John Hodgman and lacuna. Ernesto’s also a pun on the Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona. I don’t know why. I didn’t know about Orez; that’s good.
Thanks to all who comment here. I greatly enjoy reading these.
