Say No Kids

Thomas very recently discovered the late great comedian Mitch Hedberg.  Watching him through the process has been like watching a newborn grow and change before my eyes as he revels in each new joke and keeps sharing with everyone one in small group (according to Katy, he also has the big head to match newborns), a small group that, I'm sad to say, thinks all the jokes are new and laughs too readily at them.  I won't go into the threefold reasons why I'm enjoying his late discovery except to say that "eavesdropping" (I was at the same table, it hardly counts when you're at the same table) on his line of "Dufrane party of four?" last night, I immediately said, "you mean, search party of four?"  And this light just sparked in his eyes-- a spark I've never seen when we talk about things like Jesus-- and he started nodding happily and saying, "she knows it, she knows it!"-- that was one of the highlights of my Tuesday.  Then I lost interest in that side of the table was saying and went back to trying to turn Chris and Katy's conversation to be about me.
