A husband’s fib about a beloved holiday k melody backfires spectacularly
MY WIFE LOVES Christmas songs, and she loooves to sing them. Sixteen years ago, while we were driving on vacation, she decided to pass the time by singing “The Christmas Song." You know, "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire ..." She didn't sing it once. She didn't sing it twice. She sang it over and over again.
So, I decided to mess with her.
When she got to the line "Jack Frost nipping at your nose," I blanched.
"Why are you singing that song?" I said, in my most mortified voice.
When she looked confused, I feigned surprise that she was unaware of her faux pas.

Greetings from PERU AMATEUR CIRCUS
THE CLOWNERY STARTS on the sidewalk, even before you enter the big top. Crowds who show up to see the Peru Amateur Circus in Peru, Indiana, known as America's circus city, are greeted by merrymakers with silly jokes and swirly rainbow suckers. The smell of buttery popcorn fills the air; roaring trumpets fill the ears. Flossy cotton candy melts on the tongue. The circus is about to begin!
