I don't know why I like the line so much...I just do.
Monday's “Life in the 906” went off quite well. It was inspired by a sweatshirt I have, a sweatshirt I actually wore while delivering the piece talking about the Yooper national motto, the phrase “Say Ya to da UP, Eh?”. This was one of those pieces that just slipped out of my brain, and as I was typing I actually made myself laugh out loud. I have no idea how, and I have no idea why, but it's this particular line about places where you might find something with that motto stamped on it--
“...the richly upholstered couch in Steve Mariucci's man cave”.
I just have a weird sense of humor, I guess.
Like I said, I have NO idea why that line made me laugh. I mean, it is somewhat absurd, and for whatever reason it seems to have (at least to me) an almost musical rhythm to it. But to make me laugh out loud as I was originally typing it, and to still make me smile as I'm writing this?
Maybe I just need a break from reality.

Anyway, if you wanna see how it fit into the whole piece, or see if it makes YOU laugh, or how my judicious use of the word “suck” made a news anchor laugh, check it out for yourself--
