Real-life jester straightens me out

My blogs have generated comments from parents and players, coaches and fans. Nothing surprising there.

But then the other day, there was a first for me -- maybe a first in the history of blogging. I garnered a comment from a jester. Yes, a real-life jester, who, um, corrected me.

Here’s what went down...

I wrote a blog on Lakewood St. Joseph girls’ water polo -- a team known as the Jesters. As I ended the blog, I noted how England recently named its first official jester in more than three centuries. That’s what sparked a response from a jolly-good merrymaker known as Jonathan the Jester. Click here to read Jonathan’s comments.

So, now I know -- there’s no official British jester. But some would say there’s an ‘unofficial jester’ here in the U.S. Click here to find out who it is.
