That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for June 09, 2020

She dumped her agent right after this gig.

“Somehow I thought polygamy would be a lot more fun.”

They all pretended to not notice the man in the corner while Floyd sharpened his stick enough to make the move.

“Thunderbolts and Lightning, Very, Very Frightening!”

“Momma, Momma, do you think the giant ants will get us? I’m afraid of Them!”

“Momma, can I go out to play?” “No, son, we have to wait here for Mr. Godot.”

Ingrid swore that the next person who yelled “Freebird” during her recital was going to feel the broadside of her zither on their vacuum-filled head.

The answer seems to be “Thunderbolt and lightning very, very frightening me”

Mother: Just five more minutes and our pizza is free.

Boy: Great! But … what’s a pizza?

Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening?

♩ticking away the moments that make up a dull day…

Everyone in the room is thinking “Well this is awkward.”

And for my next number, I’d like to perform my rendition of “A Day In The Life.”

Mama, “That bad man broke my crutch and then he laughed.”

Little boy on the floor just asked, “Mom….. How long did the Governor say we had to ‘Shelter in Place’?”

When brother crieth “Come hither -/ for Mother hath brought out her zither !”/ we joyously gather/ – except poor Father/ who seemeth rather to wither..

Franz would feel a lot more comfortable courting Anna if her dad didn’t skulk in the corner.

Everybody is sitting stiffly, trying to remember how to act natural, as George hides in the corner with a shotgun, waiting for the cops. (That’s what happens when you smoke too much meth)

The men social distancing from the women.

The cops are here, everyone just act natural.

Little Billy Mumy forces everyone to play “Stone Statues”. (And I don’t have to tell you where the first one who moves will wind up)

“O.K., Everybody, just hold that pose and say ’Krita’s Kantele’!”

“Yes, you’ve whittled quite a nice stick there, junior. Why don’t you take it outside and beat it?”
