I definitely was smiling during my read of this story.\u00a0 It aligns very nicely with my own sense of humor.<\/p>\n<p>In the next installment of this article I\u2019ll give my ideas on some of the larger stories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Anyone with a comprehensive knowledge of this blog knows that I have a love\/hate relationship with the works of H.
