I don’t know why, other than the quirky-ness of your story, but it reminded me of a short story by Fernando Sorrentino titled “There’s a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella”

Anyway, this definately made me laugh.

I like the quirky Dr. Seuss style of voice.

That is a very strange story, Krull, but certainly very telling.

Thanks, both of you.

Hah! Nice choice of a last word!
