WAVY GRAVY ON THE FLOOR

Hugh Romney was laying down on the stage at a concert in Texas when he heard the PA announcement that B.B. King was there and was going to play for free.  Suddenly he looked up and there was King standing over him.

"You Wavy Gravy ?"
"Yes Sir"
"Well you be Wavy Gravy on the floor and I'll work around you".

From that day on Romney became Wavy and went on to entertain and raise money for many charitable causes including the Seva Foundation which to date has funded over 3 million successful cataract operations in poor countries around the world.
