Are We Having Fun Yet?

 

🍋🍐🍋🍐🍋

You might not believe this, but someone once told me I needed to lighten up and have more fun. 

Ouch!

    I will bet that Charlie Finley never heard words like those, because he wrote the book on having fun, and he shares his expertise in a compilation of short stories, Are We Having Fun Yet? Needless to say, it's a fun read. Charlie writes mostly about past pranks, the ones he pulled for no other purpose than the partaking of a few laughs and maybe to occasionally make a point.

    In full disclosure, I am not a prank puller, but I delighted in sitting on the sidelines of Charlie's narratives and witnessing his practical jokes. The world needs more fun. It's something we forget to do when the seriousness of life bears down on us.

Hell-bent on profanity? Think twice when writing for public consumption.

This post might step on some toes, so put on your steel-toed boots. Pour a cup of coffee, too, because my tirade will take a while.
