Nobody’s Fool….EVER. Dave Barry

Nobody’s Fool

Since today is Nobody’s Fool Day, AND New Year’s Eve, there is nobody who can sum up the past year as well as our own National Treasure and the only man who can make you laugh out loud on EVERY single page he writes: This year’s Nobody’s Fool is….da..da.dada…da da….DAVE BARRY!

That omnificent, master of the art of making fun of life’s absurdities, and talented historian who gets absolutely no credit for being so…brilliant as well as funny, yes Miami’s own, Dave Barry. (Can you tell I’m a fan?)

Here I am posing with Dave and Ridley Pierson some years ago, when I gave him a ….hold your breath: a homemade pumpkin pie. Or was it a small UFO I found in my backyard? I don’t remember.

I’m sure it was just what he needed. It was one of my finest moments. Sorry. It’s happens to be the only pie I can cook. I’ve often wondered what poor soul ended up with it. (Or what fine dog.)

Anyway, for quite some time I use to dream that yes, if I were a famous author, I could join the Rock-bottom Remainders! Except, now, in God’s wisdom, I’m not famous enough, and so I’m sure IF I had been lucky enough to become the drummer of that band, there is one member in that group that might have gotten hit, somewhere in the middle of Runaround Sue, by a flaming drum stick that just happened to slip out of my hands. Of course, I would have to practice that little trick so it looked like an ‘accident.’

There he is…right in the middle. Yep. I might throw a clown instead. Not sure. A drumstick made to LOOK like a clown. I’d blame it on the guy with the pink wig.

But surely, after this year we all need a good laugh. If you have NEVER read one of Dave’s yearly summations of news at the end of the year, don’t wait to put it on your bucket list;

DO IT NOW. DO IT THIS YEAR. Nobody Commands You!

Because as you know, according to some little girl named Greta, who is Joe Biden’s niece, next year, will be our last.

ENJOY!
