To: null and void

My apologies; I see you really were attacked by a mockingbird. I thought you were making a very dry "Steven Wright-ish" joke. (I'll be quiet and behave now) :-)

I adore Steven Wright; saw him in the '80s in NYC at I think it was the Biltmore. I believe I first saw his HBO show and was impressed. One of my favorite SW lines as best as I can remember:

"I like to tease my plants. I water them with ice cubes."

And he had so many others that I like. Of course his matter-of-fact, deadpan delivery makes all the difference. And his hair! I loved his crazy hair.
