Joking around

Sometimes humour can be found in the strangest of places. In a year end review, The (Toronto) Star’s humour columnist had one of the best lines of 2006 – in light of the recent Canadian federal cabinet shuffle:

“Meanwhile, Environment Minister Rona Ambrose calls a news conference to announce that the clouds are pretty.”

Ranks right up there with Dr. Fraser Crane’s famous Cheers’ line to fellow bar stool occupier, Cliff Claven: “Cliff, what colour is the sky in your world?”

There are way too many days when I want to say similar comments - because when you hear, read, engage in conversations with some people, you do, really wonder, what colour the sky in their world is.
