Program Note
Have you ever told a joke, that didn’t land? And then you try to tell that joke again, perhaps slightly different and it still doesn’t land? And over the course of the jokes development you realize, (1) I am not funny, and (2) you have to announce that you are telling the joke? This piece is my realization that bad jokes are part of life, and you should just let them die, instead of alerting everyone that you are not funny.
