It really is a wonderful thing to live in the digital age. For instance, I don't watch Ellen, but thanks to YouTube, I can still watch this hilarious clip of Ellen Degeneres talking to an 88-year-old fan named Gladys. It's making the Internet rounds under the title "I love Jesus, but I drink a little." I think that should be a bumper sticker. It probably will be soon. Aside from the title line, this clip makes me laugh because it is so much like dozens of conversations I had with elderly folks in small towns as a newspaper reporter. I guarantee you Gladys is on a first-name basis with everyone at that local station she's talking about. She probably calls them once a week. Enjoy.

This is hilarious. I can relate. San Antonio comes to a screeching halt when we get a couple of flakes of snow too.

Wow - that was priceless. Reminds me of some chats I have on a regular basis with my dear nursing home folks...whatever would we do without them?
