Someone Must've Pinched My Front Legs Off

Here in the office, on Christmas Eve Eve, it's just me and the crickets. Wes Phillips, man of many links, tells me that crickets are known to shed a leg if they get caught in a sticky situation, but only if they have had sex first.

Somewhere in there is a metaphor for my life. But I'm not going to work it out right now.

Only moments ago, JA rang in from the road. I recognized his number on the caller ID.

"John!"

I haven't seen or heard from the dude all week. The transit strike has kept him at bay. Bay Ridge, that is. So, this is a phone call I'm happy…

Merry Christmas!

Dave Barry posted this one today and it's just too fabulous not to share. Enjoy—and then spend the rest of the day listening to music with your families.
