Fly in the Soup Day

(Personal note: Today, I’m in Grand Rapids, MI, leading two workshops at Calvin College’s Youth Writers Festival working with middle school and high school youth. The name of the two workshops? “Getting on Your Funny.” Guess what I’ll be talking/teaching about?)

And for our final Fly in the Soup joke during this year’s National Humor month, here is an example of Escape or Release humor.

Customer: Waiter, waiter! There’s a fly in my soup!
Waiter: Oh, thank goodness! I thought it might be that mouse again.
