Thanks to Bickles

I went on stage. I said, “I’m sorry I’m late. I forgot I was supposed to be speaking tonight.” The audience laughed.

I said, “I’m not joking. What happened was earlier in the day I was looking out the window at a tree. Next thing I knew it was dark and I was still looking at the tree.”

“I remembered I had this talk to give. I asked my pet condor Bickles to give me a lift to the show. Bickles has a nine foot wing-span and once lifted a car out of a ditch. Bickles gripped the back of my collar and flew me here.”
