According to Harold Arlen, Joe is happiness. I think the rest of us vote for "coffee."

Verse:
Skies ain't gonna cloud no mo',
The crops ain't gonna fail,
Caught a bluebird by the toe,
A rainbow by the tail.
A certain man with eyes that shine
Voo-doo'd up this heart of mine.

Chorus:
It seem like Happiness is jes' a thing called Joe,
He's got a smile that makes the lilac wanna grow,
He's got a way that makes the angels heave a sigh,
When they know Little Joe's passing by.
Sometime the cabin's gloomy an' the table bare,
Then he'll kiss me an' it's Christmas ev'rywhere,
Troubles fly away an' life is easy go,
Does he love me good,
that's all I need to know,
Seem like happiness is jes' a thing called Joe.

2nd ending:
Little Joe,
Mm Mm Mm
Little Joe.

>> The thing that wouldn't leave!

"Thing"? Have you got a former blind date hanging around? :-)

>> Indeed, we all get to relax and chuckle here.

Not me, A-G, I feel so solemn and gloomy this morning, I think I will go up to my room, lock the door, and make obscene phone calls to Democrats.

Keep your door locked. You never can tell when one will show up. Do you know what's even worse? A former blind date who's become a left-winger and wants to explain it to you.

Well ... life is going to happen here. No temps less that 90 in the near future.

I will dream of autumn and the cool evenings. :)

Constant toil is very taxing. We must play some to balance out.

We can hope for a mild summer here, but you can bet we will get several days with temps over 100, probably in July.

It's getting busier here at work, I may not be able to be here as much during the day. I have found when I FReep in the evening I get to bed later, so I'm trying to cut back at night. I get to bed late even when I don't FReep.

I felt ill Sat, but took Nutri-Biotic, went to bed early and felt better on Sunday. I am feeling ill again today (and I am working tonite, waaaaa).

Thank you for thinking of me...

Play is not something we should outgrow. I flat refuse to give it up.

The silence was short!

None the less, I missed it...

It was more like a comma than a period.
