In 1956 or thereabouts, in our little town of Centerville, the city fathers threw a big event to open Mowry Avenue, dedicate it to the citizens, and to top it all off, invited Captain Kangaroo to emcee the event. I was there with mom, dad, and my little brother Judd. A drawing was held and the good Captain yelled out the winning number and by golly, Judd had the ticket and won himself a savings bond, handed to him by a jovial and hearty Capt. Kangaroo. And dammit, my joints DO hurt in the morning.
Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.

Part of me thinks that on the 10 year anniversary, Bruce Jenner will say "SUPRISE!!!!!" and it will have been the greatest practical joke ever.

LindaG, joints? Did you say joints? Until lately, I didn't know I had so many joints.
