Wayne Meyers of Team Pitt - Phi Sig <3s you!

Here's a joke from Wayne Meyers, an all-around great guy and heart transplant recipient on Team Pittsburgh. I know he's from Pitt because our women fairly accosted him (no word of lie, and in the nicest possible way one can be accosted, of course) for the scads of fabulous Heinz ketchup and pickle pins he was distributing early today. (This city is home to the famous food brand, BTW.)

Wayne stopped by later, sans pins, to introduce his wife Mari Jo and chat again, and it was then he confessed he's a "chicken addict." Loves all things chicken! Not to eat, necessarily - but more like stuff around the house, things to collect. Like jokes, for example. So, Wayne's favorite joke in the world is about chickens, no surprise.

Question: "Why does a chicken coop have two doors?"
Answer: "Because if it had four doors, it would be a chicken sedan!"
(Get it? Coop-coupe... as in a car? Clev-errr, Dan!)

Made me laugh. He is just a great guy. And you know, it occurred to me that, if not for his lifesaving surgery, I probably wouldn't have heard that joke, or perhaps met Mari Jo, and maybe the women of Phi Sig wouldn't have a story to tell about how they swarmed the "ketchup" or "pickle" pin guy at our booth (which he fairly loved, lemme tell you!).

Connections.... Life. Is. About. Them. Gotta love it!

Ooo. Here's Wayne's Web site: http://waynemeyerstranspl.tripod.com/

Tell him thanks for the pins!
