Lookalikes always make things fun

We have had a busy day and will be having a busy next several days, so I'll try to make this short. You know me. Brevity is not my strong suit.

The hub and I went to AAA today. While taking to our new friend, J, another couple sat next to us to talk with the "Road Travel Specialist". They had very specific ideas about what they wanted to do on their trip to Mississippi. I casually mentioned to My hub that the husband looked and sounded just like John Madden. I in no way meant this as a jab or ugly remark. The resemblance was uncanny. For whatever reason, the hub and our new friend J thought this was very funny and couldn't stop laughing. The man, in his booming Maddenesque voice, went on to talk about how he got his new grill up to 500 degrees last night and accidentally grabbed the hot stainless steel cover. He described hearing his fingers sizzle and, no I don't stay in Holiday Inns and here feel my fingers. The blisters are huge. Wow. Just an engaging fellow. As Bill Cosby talked about the subway, "There's a nut in every car," there is a nut wherever you go.

That is about all I have. Time to get the hub and his poor back up to bed. Three soccer games are going to be hard on him tomorrow.
