A short, quirky annecdote. I have no idea in what context this piece would fit, but I found amusing both the story and the storyteller. A simple glimpse into a family story you'd be more likely to hear around a holiday dinner table. The length is both its biggest strenth and weakness: completely story appropriate, but so short it's hard to imagine finding a context for this piece in which a listener wouldn't be left thinking: 'Well, that was funny... and odd.'
