The theme could be exploration. Since it's about a place 'up yonder', it might be about characters exploring an unknown area.
Well, in 'the big tip up yonder' short story, the title gives a sense of mystery. 'The big tip' could be a physical location that is large and perhaps important. It might be a story about discovery. The characters could be on a journey to reach this 'big tip up yonder', facing various obstacles along the way, like bad weather or difficult terrain.
I think it was a character named Buddy Holly. But I'm not 100% sure.
I don't remember exactly who the waiter is. Maybe it's a minor character that didn't make a big impression.
I don't know as I haven't read it. It could be about adventure, friendship or something else entirely.
John Travolta stars as the waiter in Pulp Fiction.
I don't know who created the 'tip top story' as there's no information given. It could be an unknown writer or someone well - known in a particular community.
