Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting

There are some things that can be explained and some things that just can't, no matter how hard you try. Like, who can explain why Carl Douglas' 1974 one-hit-wonder single, a weirdly sappy sentimental-sounding tune called Kung Fu Fighting, was such a wild success? Or, how come most people can sing that song from memory, even today? Wynham probably knows it because of the Kung Foo Hamster he got for Christmas one year.

Maybe that's what inspired him to come out of his room with his dukes up this morning. I know Claire decided to study Tae Kwon Do this year so that she could (and I quote), "kick Wynham's b---!" I even get the boxer shorts connection. But nothing could ever, not ever, explain why Wynham is wearing my Whittal & Javitts felt hat with the big satin bow for this particular occasion...

  1. That hat is priceless. And you wonder why you can never find things....from your closet to Wynham's head. A black hole in between.
