The original reference is to an old Marx Brothers movie - way before Carson. The only thing I share with Johnny is we both suffer from nictophobia. It's the fear of backing into doorknobs.

OUCH!

BTW - Johnny's doctor is Niles Curvey. Rodney Dangerfield's doctor is Vinnie Boombatz.

The Three Stooges, Johnny Carson, Groucho Marx, and Daffy Duck all used this law firm.

OT - who's ball is it anyways...

VARSITY boys, getting ready to start OT. A1 comes up and asks "who's ball is it?"

Trying to hold back my laughter, "Well, we toss it up again."

No sooner B1 comes up and guess what, "who's ball is it?"

It's SOP for me when a kid asks this question to look down at the ball and say, "Some kid named Wilson" (or Rawlings, or Baden, or Nike, etc.). Boys almost always get the joke, girls almost never do. Don't know why, though.
