And to work on my new story. Yep, there's another one on the way.I've been up all night with a horrible stomach bug.

This girl (let's call her Tina) raises her hand and tells him that she went to Canada with her family in June.Mr. S replies, "Did you sample any of the fine Canadian cuisine while you were there?" (He has a very dry sense of...
