Groan. I just read this:
“When the man who wrote the song “Hokey Pokey” died the undertakers had trouble keeping the body in the casket. They’d put his left leg in and . . . .well, you know the rest.”
It did make me laugh! How about you?
Sometimes I wonder if anybody is paying any attention. Like the Peanuts cartoon I submitted once before. Lucy is at her table with the sign over her head that reads: “Psychiatric Help 5 cents”. Charlie Brown comes by and says to her: “And also when I talk to people I find that they don’t really listen to me . . .”
In the next frame he continues while kind of looking away: “I find that I can’t seem to hold a person’s attention . . .when I talk to people their minds sort of wander off, they stare into space, and . . .”
He looks back at Lucy in the next picture, and Lucy is staring off into space, so Charlie continues:
“And . . . and . . .”
Then in the last frame he looks right at us and says: “*sigh*”.
That’s the way I feel sometimes, even when I talk about the Founding Fathers.
