Yep, July 2001 issue, in "Laughter, the Best Medicine" a "Kumiko Yoshida" contributed one of the humourous stories Art has on one of his albums, I think it was "Tall Tales & Outright Lies."

It's the one about the little guy showing up at the lumber camp, asks the head lumberjack for a chance to show what he can do. As Art tells it, the fellah takes down each tree the boss tells him to, each time the chosen tree is bigger, etc.

When the bossman asks him where he learned to cut trees like that, he answered, "The Sahara."
Bossman says, "The Sahara Desert?!"
Little guy, "Desert? Oh sure, that's what they call it now!"

Now, that is just a synopsis, not told anywhere near as well as Art does, but Reader's Digest does ask for comments on their current issue and I intend to tell them to give credit where credit is do.

Art, if you see this, would you please, or anyone else who knows, give me the corrent album title and date of original release?

And, they used it as the lead one, top, left corner of the first page of that section!
