If a serious HTTP server isn't realistic, how about a comedy one?

Rather than using TCP as a transport, we can use cars driven by clowns, with doors that fall off to provide tracibility and per-gig persistant state. HTTP 401 errors can be implemented with custard pies. For scalability, a double act is a proven solution.

According to the needs of the venue, the service can be run in slapstick mode or pun based.

Sorry, I seem to have wandered a little off topic. Could anyone front me a dried frog pill or two?
