Love this, great song choice from benny (dan) too!

I followed one of the three cardinal DDF rules:

2) Must make a Dan/Benny joke at every opportunity


And "fill the world with light" popped in my head immediately, didn't even consider any other choices

The joke is premised on me being one track minded, so I'm not sure if that's a yes or no

Umm, there's a bit more editing than just GPT going on.  :)

So my wife was planning on going out last night to the grocery because there were no snack bags left in my house and my kids needed for school today, but the baby was crying a lot and she didn't have a chance to go before the stores all closed. She was very nervous last night, knowing that the kids would be really disappointed in the morning. I then remembered that there was a DDMS post yesterday about Kettle Brand potato chips, and I said, "Hey, maybe we could order snacks from Amazon!" (My go-to place for snacks is my local grocery, and I never thought of Amazon as a vendor for snack bags.)

I put the order through at 2:25 in the morning, and I now have on my doorstep those chips, as well as a box of Natures Valley granola bars and Skinny Pop popcorn.

It may seem like an insignificant thing, but it made all the difference to my family today. Thank you Dan and JJ for once again saving the day!

Amazon doesn't accept likes, hence:
