More- Fun With Smalls

There are some things that are just natural comedy. Monkeys, babies laughing, penguins walking/sliding on the ice, squirrels, chipmunks, people getting scared, and this:

Hope this makes you smile like it does us after every bath.

In Other News...

I got to go to a MN Timerwolves game last night with Wayne J., Brandon G., and Josh H. We had a blast! They won an exciting game in overtime. The basketball here is notoriously mediocre so we had to entertain ourselves in other ways. This is not hard to do when you get 15-20,000 people from all walks of life in one place. So here are some of the characters we encountered:

Slappy- the guy who has a front-row, court-side seat, yet squats right next to the out of bounds line and slaps the rolled up program on the hardwood floor. The slapping had no syncronization with exciting events that occured during the game. It was completely random. Slappy also made creepy gestures towrd the T-wolves' cheerleaders. It was fun to watch them react after he turned away.

Doodle Bag- this guy was one of the assistants to the head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies. DB was a very handsome, tall man with slicked back hair and a sharp suit. Apparently DB's only job was to occasionally write things down. He carried a note pad in one hand and a red Sharpie in the other, and at the appropriate (??) time he wrote stuff down. He also put the chairs back in order after the time outs. Doodle Bag also found a young lady about four seats away that he thought was attractive. The young lady was with another equally handsome guy, yet DB would look at her every 2-4 seconds. He tried to be sneaky about it but wasn't very successful. He literally stole hundreds of looks at her throughout the night. Every time he looked Brandon and I would sond an alarm that sounded like a high-pitched "WOOT!" We were only four rows away from him so we were suprised that he never made the connection between our WOOT's and his peeks.

People are fun to watch. Sometimes, I wonder what people laugh about when they watch me and the people I hang out in public with.

If we told you what we laugh at, it wouldn't be funny to us!

True...then I wouldn't do it and no laughter. Don't tell me.

Came here from J-crew's blog... Funny funny video, Ron&Ebby! The girls and I got a good laugh at breakfast this morning. The music you added is perfect.

And your people-watching description skills are stellar.

See you 'round church...
