Who do you credit, (or blame) for your sense of humor?
My Uncle Eddy and Uncle Jimmy. On my mom's side we would have 10 cousin birthday parties a year besides Christmas and summer weekends in a couple of old trailers in the pine barrens. Dad's drank, mom's cooked and nobody talked politics or religion. As a kid if you could make my grandmother laugh with a school story, which wasn't hard to do, it would feel so good you kept trying to think of new ones. And if everyone laughed it must have felt like home run feels. I can only guess. Years later everyone tried to make my mom laugh.

Now only a couple of times a year my sibs, kids, nieces and nephews get together and we still try to make each other laugh with stories. It feels the same but twice a year is not enough. I wish they were here.
