Humor does a million things in our lives. It gives us strength, keeps us going. It bonds us with the people around us, makes memories that're hard to forget. It facilitates encounters with truth, sometimes even gives us a chance to cry.

This story just kept tapping its knuckles on the back window of my brain and I finally had to answer. Want know what was behind this story's insistence on being told? There's only one way to find out: grab your favorite beverage, invite a friend over (because why not), and give it a listen.
