I hadn’t read one of your pieces for a while, and it was nice to see this pop up! I love that your colleague was named after the Groke; I recall that name from when I read one of those books to my son at bedtime years ago.

Also— Seeing that hanging quail pic was a nice way to start my day.

Such human stories, Wil, with lessons we can all learn.

Amanda Jaffe tells a story in her interview at the Substack "Good Humour with CK Steefel": She recalled that "as it became a story, it became my story – and a funny one. It was a great example of Nora Ephron’s famous quote: “When you slip on a banana peel, people laugh at you. But when you tell people you slipped on a banana peel, it's your laugh.”

I enjoy your laughs. :)
