Arthur! Arthur!

Arthur came and went, hope he wasn't viewed too lightly because the damage around our neighborhood wasn't that bad, especially for a  CAT 2 storm. We were without power from 10:30 PM until about 11:00 AM, not bad at all, and we got to use the generator for the first time. It worked well. Friday was so pretty that we took Elizabeth, Jackson and the grand-dog Daisy out for a boat ride. Found some flotsam, but nothing good enough to keep, awwwwwwwwwwwwwww
It was a lot different when I came in on the AMTRAK bus Friday afternoon, I thought we were in for a bad one.
Now for some levity, more often than not I ask for audience participation and more often than not I get very little. This is easy, you don't have to give the punch line, you can if you like, but let's see if you can give the setup line. And it's OK if you answer as ANONYMOUS. Here we go:

...............................next week we will work on the punch line.
And speaking of punch lines, on my way to the airport in Dallas a couple of weeks ago I drove by a Frisbee golf course. I looked over and saw a guy in a ditch under a low hanging branch trying to throw his disc. See, if you look hard enough you can find an honest man.
Last week in Maryland, Virginia and DC. Next week in Phoenix, yes, at 107 degrees (it's a dry heat) I'm crazy but the hotel rooms are cheap this time of the year.  

Dueling Banjos No, the odd looking young man did not play the banjo in the movie, here is how the movie-magic people did it: Fake sleeves !!...
