I wrote a really funny column for the newspaper this week. It was an April Fool column that was a hoot. I sent it in this morning with a smile on my face. I got a note back from the editor this afternoon saying the publisher didn't want to run it. I was perplexed.
I think we're losing our sense of humor. Not sure if it's the struggle to always be politically correct, or if hard times have made people forget how to laugh. At any rate, I found myself writing a new column tonight and for the first time since I've been writing the column, I'm past the deadline.
I think the pendulum is swinging back towards good times again. I also think it's time we all lightened up and had a little fun.
I'll get this right - I have a bit of a bug with my blog right now. When April 1 rolls round can you post your column here? Maybe your readers aren't as politically correct as your editor and I'm sure we'd all enjoy a laugh...
