I was cruising through Off Wing Opinion last evening and clicked on a link to Ashlee Simpson's rather unfortunate Orange Bowl halftime show performance (she was booed off the stage...OUCH!). So while the stream is buffering, Simon settles on my lap. Suddenly the video cranks up and the sound of Ashlee Simpson's voice makes Simon leap a good 12-15 inches STRAIGHT UP off of my lap! Then the stream needed to re-buffer so while it did that I settled Simon back onto my lap. Then, Ms. Simpson screeched yet again, sending Simon back into the air. His back legs landed on the edge of my desk and he used the desk to launch himself half-way across the living room and ran half-screeching, half-wailing into the kitchen!

I had cascades of tears streaming down my face for three reasons:
     1. It was SO DAMN FUNNY!
     2. I was laughing so hard it kicked my migraine up again. And...
     3. I was just so proud of the boy for inheriting his "mom's" discriminating taste in music!
