The Riskies


Congratulations, MariElle, you’re the winner of a $25 Amazon gift certificate. Please send your email address to riskies@yahoo.com.

I didn’t pick a winner based on the quality of the jokes (it was through the impartial and humorless random integer method), but MariElle’s was pretty good–here’s her punchline again:

The young monk asks the old Abbot, “What’s wrong, father?” With a choking voice, the old Abbot replies, “The word was… ‘celebRate!!!’ ”

And don’t you like this authentic, sophisticated medieval wall painting?
