From the Web site of "A Prairie Home Companion", in the Pretty Good Jokes section.

A guy from Alabama was flying to Atlanta to visit his cousin. His plane was due at 3:00, but he didn't show up at his cousin's house until past midnight.

"What happened?" the cousin asked.

"Well," the guy said, "I was between floors when they had a power failure, and I was stuck there for seven hours."

"That's awful!" his cousin said.

"Yeah," the guy said, "and there ain't even any comfortable way to sit down on an escalator."


I'm being lazy tonight, in part due to severe back pain. Perhaps I could find relief from it here, or here or maybe here. Aaah--that's the ticket!
