&lt;div&gt;
I go for a workout at 5am, 5 days a week. Only something went wrong and my trainer didn't meet me. As I headed home, I listened to NPR and though I might be annoyed at the effort I put in to getting up so early for a whole lotta nuthin, this story and this comedian made me laugh.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;"To me, clowns aren't funny. In fact they're kinda scary. I've wondered where this started, and I think it goes back to the time when I went to the circus and a clown killed my dad." - Jack Handey&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: white; color: #37404e; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Read the article for yourself. I can tell you, it gives me hope that even at his level, sometimes finding the funny can still be a complete mystery.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

I'm sure there's a better way to do this and the posts will evolve as I puzzle my way through.&lt;br /&gt;
