This post is not like any of my other serious posts. I need a break! On one of our trips to TN, we discovered that one of the many things we have in common with Emily is our love for the movie (and the quotes) of Anchorman. Emily sent us this email and I thought I would share!

.:Don't mess with Jack Johnson or Tom O'Leary.
