Maureen Callahan

That was an attack.

Hi, Maureen.

This is from Troublemaker Tim.

I got drunk one night at a bar and came home with a black eye.

My wife asked me what happened, and I told her I had an encounter.

An encounter, she asked.

So I confessed that it was an encounter with another drunk guy's fist, but that I was just minding my own business, having an innocent chat with his wife while he was in the little boy's room.

I can report from the field that none of this bullshit actually works.

My wife didn't buy any of it.

Words and honesty do matter.
