Serendipitous
I’d like to relay a little story of the time I had a beer with Kris Kristofferson … before he was famous. It was 1968; I was eighteen years old, and was hitchhiking from Miami to New York. I had gotten off the beaten track, so to speak. I should have stayed on US 301 […]
That Guy On The Bridge
Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, “Don’t do it!” He said, “Nobody loves me.” I said, “God loves you. Do you believe in God?” He said, “Yes.” I said, “Are you a Christian or a Jew?” He said, “A Christian.” I said, “Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?” He […]
I Dream of Jeanie
A man walks into a bar. He’s normal size but has a tiny head, about the size of a small cantaloupe. The bartender gives him his desired drink and leans against the back bar. After a few minutes he says, “I’m sorry, but I just gotta ask. Were you born like that?” “Not at all,” […]

Danny’s Goodbye
Hey guys, it’s me, Danny—your favorite dog. I’m hangin’ out just listenin’ to Willie sing a little Kris. My human, Andrew, doesn’t get it. He doesn’t know that Kris and Willie are speaking for God. Have you ever listened to “Sunday Morning Coming Down”? I love to ride in cars, don’t you? Sticking my head […]
Danny, Suni, and Perri
Did you all miss me last week? Of course you did. Well, worry not. I’m back from vacation and rarin’ to go. Now on to this week’s adventure. I had a surprise visit today from two old friends who came all the way from Spain just to see me. They claimed they had come to […]
I Saw Jesus
My name is Andrew Joyce, and for those of you who keep up with the adventures of Danny the Dog, I’m his human and he’s my dog. He’s always writing about me, telling you nice people what an idiot I am and that I drink too much. But I want you to know right here […]
