Things To Do This Week.

Take A Chance.

After nine months of research, members of the Humor Research Lab — yes, that's a real thing — have “discovered” that Dallas is one of the least funny big cities in America — according, at least, to their proprietary humor algorithm.

It could be worse, though. We could be dead last. (Sorry, Fort Worth.)

Then again, it could be a whole lot better, too. That is to say, we could all probably stand to lighten up some this week. And, listen, getting out of our boring old houses a few times this week should help some with that.
