Reid About It

Quick one for Friday, as Friday night means high school football in East Texas, where we see "Friday Night Lights" as a lighthearted comedy romp.

If you haven't checked out my work over at Examiner.com, by all means mosey on over that way. I've been promoted to one of their National NFL writers, you can find the latest column right here. Even if you're not a sports fan, I promise each and every column will have some piece of sarcasm you can use to your benefit. In today's column, I pick the NFL games while simultaneously working in references to "The Patriot," KISS lyrics, and the legendary Tony Danza. Check it out, comments and subscriptions always welcome.

As for today, I'll leave you with my favorite joke. Actually, it's one of the few actual jokes that I can remember whenever anybody says "say something funny." That's a lot of pressure for an situational improv guy.

Anyway, I'm not a big joke kind of guy, so here's really the only one I ever tell.

Noah's Ark pulls out, and the rain starts to fall. Two Unicorns stand out by the rail, looking out as they pull away.

One says to the other, "What do you think, Dan?"

The other takes a deep breath and says, "Frankly Steve...I think we're screwed."

If you've got a better go-to joke, please share. Have a good weekend, everybody!
