Funny Story

So at a recent Justin Bond performance--but not recent enough!-- s/he told us a hilarious story about being backstage at Carnegie Hall during the McGarrigle Christmas Hour, which I was at with my love. I could never tell it as JB does (plenty of laffs on his blog), but Dust and I thought it was MARIO.

So backstage at Carnegie Hall, Our Lady J turns to Justin and asks her: "Hey Justin, can you do my backfat?" And Justin says "Sure" and comes over and helps J with her dress. Emmylou Harris was also in the same dressing room, and says: "Excuse me, what did you just say?" to which J says, "You know, do my backfat. If you push it to the front it makes cleavage. You know, we all have backfat." The profundity of this statement was not lost on Emmylous, as she repeats, solemnly, "We all have backfat." As Justin tells it, as they were heading onstage, he hears her say again, in a whisper: "We all have backfat."

Here's a Venn diagram that I made in Paint of the amount of people in this world who may think this was funny:
