You can do multiples if you remove the one that has been retrieved and 
processed.

The *LAST value makes a looping process into a LIFO processor where the last
entry created is the first one processed.  If you follow up with removing the
entry, the *LAST will get the previous request.

For outputing to printers where the usual result is that you have to restack the
pages to get them in the right order, this has a side benefit of having the 
first
request (last printed) at the top of the stack.
