I am, by trade, a professional napper, and willing to bet that not the only
one on the list by any means.

Used to think I was funny, as in amusing, but some years ago Road Cow [Hope
he's still around somewhere] and I met at a BenT event in the east bay
region of the San Francisco area. His comment was "You're not nearly as
funny in person." Which I think is pretty darn funny actually.

So maybe I'm not funny as in amusing but funny as in fun to laugh at? Come
on you guys [ and a few girls as well ] cut it out! I plan to be caught up
on my van's fix its, and add its some day really soon. Then you'll be
laughing out of the other side of your face. Which is really funny cause how
can you laugh out of the nape of your neck?

Enough of this faugh de raw. Let Pesionerd chime in now and complete the
trilogy. Maybe even the poet emeritus of the list, Joel, if he's still
lurking about.
