Sometimes everything in the universe lines up just right.

The other day, Melinda, my boss, came back after running errands. C. and I were working down in the studio, and had left the iPod blasting a Johnny Cash playlist in the house. Melinda stepped into the house, and there was the momentary between-songs silence. Wondering where we all were she called out, "Hello?" And just at that moment, Walk the Line queued up where Johnny begins, in his deeply resonant voice, "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash!" --answering Melinda's query.

  5. About a week ago I watched a Colombo re-run with JC in a starring role. He really should have stuck to singing.

  6. Well yes indeed I was most definitely startled! Especially as I entered into the kitchen, couldn't see the living room (where we work) and always enter calling out "hello" and hear T. and C. call back. The timing couldn't have been more perfect! After the shock it was utterly hilarious, and I suspect it will continue to bring on belly laughs for a long, long time.
