I Take My Laughter Where I Can

Tag, I’m It
Zoinks, I’ve been tagged by Ryan, my Philly-area compatriot (sorry I haven’t been to a Meetup recently. Next one, I promise…). Yeah, I know it’s the blogging equivalent of a non-anonymous chain letter, but hey, it’s fun. As such, my…
Funny, My Wife And I Were Just Talking About This
