For those who know me, it’s no secret I’m a little more than left of center. Perhaps you wonder how that came to be. Well, I’m here to tell you that while most of you grew up with grimm fairy tales, I grew up with Grandma Gloria fairy tales. Maybe you’ll all treat me a little more gently now.

I had a little monkey,
sent it to the country,
fed it on gingerbread.
Ankle Bankle shot him in the ankle
now my monkey’s dead.
