And I thought that 'grinner at the bus stop' story was just a myth.

The very worst place to think of something funny and start that uncontrollable laughing is in church during a boring sermon. Believe me, it's happened to me more than once.

This is for sure something I have to try
I wish I was there to see you, I would have joined you rather than walk away :)

I spent too much time on my own before blogit and eventually the Wiley one
I used to catch myself talking out loud and people did stare.
Growl if you want but please don't bite.

I caught myself chuckling because I remembered something funny, like you in the middle of the road and with no apparent reason. The looks you get make you laugh even harder and I was soo tempted to pull faces at the stupid faces.

When I was a kid the big father of a neighbor wouldn’t let me tell Jack and the Beanstalk to his. He felt that the giant was too scary. But you know people shouldn’t care about someone that laughs at a bus stop. I know a bus driver that got held up. Ironically the film Sleepless in Seattle takes place in your Seattle. This story’s an adult fairy tale like the old Cary Grant romances. And it’s fairy tale enough to become a musical by the same producer of Stop the World I Want to Get Off with Anthony Newly in the 60s. The point’s that these happy thoughts like you, playing Goldilock’s bear for the children at the bus stop are of people that lived in another time. And, I thank God for people like you that still exist. People and children would enjoy themselves better like Mr. E’s if more people were like you. Take care. Your time’s well spent love.

People are strange! Just think, if one of them had smiled and asked you to share the joke.
