After that scary stuff how about something light? It's not a short story per se but it's James Thurber and it's hilarious!

I haven't read a Thurber in a long time. I had an in high school that loved Thurber and assigned us a few. I also remember on Keith Olberman's show, he used to read a Thurber story at the end of his Friday show.
This story reminded me of a slapstick comedy-- three stooges. The way the relatives, all a tad peculiar, acted out their part. A nice read-- Thank you, Tery for suggesting it. Be careful of your bed!!
It was Tery's choice and a good one!!
I'd forgotten how much I like Thurber. Thank you Spideyman for this read.
Thurber is great Americana. Walty Mitty, The Cat Bird Seat. I love Thuber.
Many thanks to Tery !! Nice choice. Good storytelling.It was Tery's choice and a good one!!
