Your Honor, I enter into the record Exhibit A (4:03).
I mean, what else would you call it but a banjo of mass destruction, given how the Hudson sisters, Blanche and Jane, turned out (2:20)?
Uh-oh. On closer inspection, Exhibit A might be said to contain a piano of mass destruction (PMD) as well. That hits a little too close to home. The jury will disregard this paragraph.

One other thing, Your Honor.
Any similarity between the Daddy in Exhibit A and yours truly is purely coincidental.
Hello, world! This blog began on September 28, 2007, and so far nobody has come looking for me

On my honor, I will do my best not to bore you. All comments are welcome
as long as your discourse is civil and your language is not blue.
Happy reading, and come back often!
And whether my cup is half full or half empty, fill my cup, Lord.
