Profound Cerebral Question #2

All my life, I’ve heard the word handbasket used in only one context.

What exactly is a handbasket, and why is it perceived to be the most dreadful mode of transportation to Hell?

You got me there, Jude. But I sure hope the handbasket that transports me has a hidden compartment with a "Get out of hell free" card stuck inside.

Yes, Kathy. If you're going to hell in a handbasket, you should always look for that secret compartment. LOL.

You're taxing me, Jude. Next thing you know, you'll ask why the inventor of clumping cat litter can't make it stop sticking like glue to the sides of the litter box.

By the way, excellent first paragraph over at What's-His-Name's place.

Hi Stephen:

Thanks, man. I can't believe how many people are entering that contest!

Me either. Miss Snark got over five hundred entries on her last Crapometer, and we thought that was astronomical. Nathan's got over 700 comments (not all are entries) with two days to go. Watch it approach 1000. I get dizzy just scrolling through the things.
