"Now I don't care who you are, that's funny right there"

The following shoud be read in the voice of Newman from Seinfeld

All it's missing is one of those gold clocks with the glass dome over it and the 3 little balls at the bottom going BACK AND FORTH, BACK AND FORTH, for hours and hours and hours.

Sorry, I had this bad memory of being at grandmas house while mom and dad were at the party. I remember it was hot and stuffy all the time and we had to watch Billy Graham on TV, while a perfectly good episode of "Felix the Cat" was on the other channel. There were only 3. Then I had to take a bath in the tub that always had some grit at the bottom. Yea, Yea I remember, I remember.

And then there was the time when ... Well, nevermind.

I'm alright now.
