Our agents use a Web-based service called Webster. And one of our Help Desk staff just took a call and said, "The agent called Webster to get a manual." And I said, "Lewis?"

AH ha ha ha ha!

Okay, maybe it's not all that funny, but it's true.

The actor Emanuel Lewis played a character named Webster on TV. The joke here is that someone said they called Webster for "A manual" (sounds like Emanuel).

I think that's mostly just "Larity at work."

This is an anecdote fully worthy of inclusion in Reader's Digest. The beauty of this is that it would fit in either "Virtual Hilarity" or "All in a Day's Work."

You know, I was thinking in Reader's Digestesque terms when I wrote the subject line, but I didn't realize there was a column called "Virtual Hilarity." Or maybe my subconscious did realize it. Creepy! Yet wholesome.

Wouldn't really matter if you did. It was most likely before you were born.
