THERE'S AN "L" ON ONE END,AN "H" ON THE OTHER,AND AN "UNC" IN THE MIDDLE...

You know,lunch.And I had one today with an old friend and co worker from the headache days that I hadn't seen in a couple of years.We riffed on old gags (see title) from back in the day and basically caught each other up on family,work and just things in general.This is the guy that did the Mr.Potatohead bit in group therapy.*<Now...let me tell you a story about this guy.
We were having group therapy one day and one of the subjects was soothing things. As you can imagine, favorite pets and examples of the soothing effect were shared by almost everyone in the group. Since this was a transitional center back to the community, staff were allowed to participate on a more personal level.
I'm sitting across from him and watching him take it all in, looking very thoughtful and serious.
Then, with a completely straight face, he busts out with this:
" You know,at the end of a stressful day I like to go home and pick up my Mr. Potato Head and just gaze into his eyes, it's very soothing".
Everyone lost it! Even the lead therapist was laughing out loud. Needless to say, group was over. He was gently admonished by the lead therapist to redirect his sense of humor to someplace other than group.(from a 2005 post)*>
It was good to see him and to remember funny stuff,he's still "crackin' nuts" and I say more power to him.
Even though you won't get it,I'll leave you with this famous riff that got us rolling every time:
(to the tune of the theme song from bonanza)
bum dada bum dada bum dada bum-Myk SIMPSON!!!!!
HA!

Last night we spent some time at a friends birthday get together at this place down town called Molotovs,where drink flowed and the company was good.I could get used to this socializing thing.
Molotovs is a cool place,like our brthday girl said,it's what you'd envision a lounge to be.
