The Scene: Lovely Wife is typing away at her computer. Bacon comes up to her with a marker and a blank piece of paper.

Bacon: Momma, how do you spell "Everybody stay out of my room especially Burger"?

Lovely Wife: [stifles laugh] Ummm...it's "E-V-E-R-Y-B-O-D-Y S-T-A-Y O-U-T O-F M-Y R-O-O-M E-S-P-E-C-I-A-L-L-Y B-U-R-G-E-R".

Bacon: [wearing a crestfallen expression] Oh. That's a lot.

Lovely Wife: Yes, it is.

Bacon turns and walks out of the room, dispirited at the effort required to make his sign. Late the same evening Lovely Wife noticed a sign, carefully lettered and taped to Bacon's door. The resourceful lad had rethunk his requirements and reduced scope on his sign project. The completed work read:

NO BURGER!
