It's a mental picture... Written by Reeba (9/20/2010 4:14 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Sorry, I still don't see the humor, penned by Laurel

that is generated by JA's inimitable style of description.

But I can understand people who don't get this picture, and are more analytical about the proceedings.
Not that this analysis doesn't play any part in the picture. It does...like a caricature.

I'm not trying to say anyone not finding it humourous is wrong. Their's is definitely one way of looking at it.
So I'm not even agreeing to disagree, because I can see your POV :-)
