A note from the Lame-Duck-in-Chief

My dearest Funner fans (and blog trolls), I write to you from the depths of procrastination (as I’m sure you, too, have reached, if you see fit to read this).

For reasons we still don’t comprehend, Liquid Fun has been invited to perform at Newton South High School’s “WAI Funny” benefit show for at least four years running (alums, help us out if it’s been longer).
