I spent some time visiting our friend Ken today. Ken is hilarious! He always makes me laugh. Today he was regaling me with some stories from his childhood. Ken comes from a very large family, and he is the second youngest. One of his older brothers worked at a bakery, and brought home some pies that were near the expiration date.
Well, as the story goes, one of his brothers had upset their Mother. Ken was in another room at the time, and all he heard his brother say was, "You wouldn't dare!" to which his Mother said,"Like hell I won't!" followed by (the sound) SPLAT! and that set off a pie fight among the Mom and siblings. During this commotion his Dad came home from work, looked around the kitchen and said,"I'm going to the pub" and left.
Ken is so animated when he tells this story it's almost like being there and witnessing the whole thing. I was almost in tears from laughing so hard. I told him that it reminded me of a 3 Stooges Pie Fight (video clip at the beginning of blog). We both cracked up laughing.
I like hanging out with people that I feel comfortable with and make me laugh.
Cheers, Ken!
